Afire in the Sky
Amidst the colors of a vibrant dawn
two eagles soar within their own domains.
Each searching for a mate, they're slowly drawn
towards the skies which destiny maintains.
Their hearts are racing as they near this space
for they can hear the cry of rapture’s plea.
Within this realm two mighty birds embrace,
becoming one

Desire Afire
If I get my wish
If my wish does come true
The best present ever
Is the present of you
You're all that I want
I'd be satisfied
To open my gift
Putting all else aside
I'll unwrap you slowly
Take my time with each bow
And after the last one
The rest will just flow
Since what happens next
I can't really discuss
At least not

Heart's Afire
When you share your heart
To a beckoned call
The day you start
You risk it all
If love is sealed
The words are spoken
A heart is healed
Or a heart is broken
If your heart runs dry
It may never heal
So don't rely
On sex appeal
But when it's true
Your heart's afire
Then give into
Your heart's desire

September's Song
The summer sun begins to chill,
as Autumn sings September's song.
A briskness falls upon the hills,
days now don't tarry quite so long.
As Summer leaves, she blows a kiss
to lovely blossoms, soon to fade.
Leaves on trees await Autumn's bliss
to preen in red and gold parade.
An artist's dream, those royal hues,
as though the trees must be afire.
No room

Set Us Afire
The sun went behind cobalt clouds
Once again, but came out
Leaving those clouds 'pon the horizon
Those sunbeams now so stout
Clouds slowly thicken come together
Almost block the sunbeams
Gradually slowly the sun's covered
But its presence is supreme
As the water sprinkler clicks round
Hangs up in the tulip tree
Its presence becomes so much quieter
Reducing the noise with ease
The sun

Hope Afire
Faith is stronger than its outcome,
an end unto itself
Where souls enmire in hope afire

Sky Afire
Bright, out-shimmering the stars,
Venus, Jupiter and Mars ...
Each November, guard the moon,
Whilst the Seven Sisters swoon.
Stars that swim a sea instead,

Symphony Afire
HERE-IS THE SAME
HERS-WAFTS LIKE A FEATHER
SWEET HONEY INNOCENCE
DRIPPING
HE-IS OF SOFT LEATHER
HEAVY, BLACK
UNFATHOMABLE
THEY-BITE AND STING
THEY CARESS THE AIR
FLOW LIKE MUSIC
CARRY ON THE WIND
DANCE INTO THE FLAMES
MELT INTENTIONS
THEIRS-IS HARMONY
SYMPHONY.

All Kindled Lies Afire
Is the artist in me a liar,
or the one who walks outside
Are my words and deeds in conflict,
which to breathe and which to hide
Would King Solomon have an answer,
to this split I often feel
Would salvation hold my name in check,
as today my soul to deal
Do excuses like

Man Afire
I burn to leave a legacy
I burn hot and bright
That others might find safety
In the warmth of my light.
Brightly burning in the night.
Such a quest a slave makes
Servant to others be
Yet may never I dim or take
Another's light from thee
That my brethren be set free.
Shadows strong and dark
Follow close, upon my heels
Ever stalking their mark
With

When I call on him, he is there.

Sparks Afire
bright skies swallowed by darkness
sparks of love set afire
glowing flames at my back
guide my way through the gloom
moving slow fearing whats lost
looking back I get burned
reminding me there's nothing left
Iv found my home
just enough rain to not get burned
just enough light to know I'm alive
I hope you find your light
brighter then i could shine
don't worry

Afire With Passion
Feel the fire that burns in my heart
Draw nearer, you’ll find I’m ablaze
Desire is tearing me apart
This thing called love is madness, craze
Sweat trickles down upon my chest
I smolder with longing for you
You stoke the fires and do your best
To emit flames of sapphire blue
Douse this blaze with passion’s sweet kiss
Let me melt in your

To Keep Our Torches Afire
When gray, we are away
From light that brightly shines
As if around under a cloud
We roam, spirit forlorn.
Our thoughts turn inward
And we dwell in a well
Of self righteous indignation
Which harrows down to our bone marrow
And sap our energy trapped
By an arraign of complain.
The body stricken get
