Frederic Parker Poet Free verse

My Soul's Eternal Flame

my soul is an eternal flame
born from the first breath of life
that lives on the edge of eternity
where it quenches my thirsty heart
with wondrous wonders from wishing wells
that flow from the trembling tremors of each breath
cast upon the vibrant glows of life's yearnings
that rise with each glorious glowing ray of morning
and sits in the gentle quiet solitude of an evening's serenity

where each thread of the day unwinds
revealing the longing for tomorrow
that lays waiting
to be nourished by the sacred waters of my soul
that fills the golden chalice of life
that sits on the altar of my being
where my soul's flame burns forever
in a universe of eternal light
