Summer Aflame

Awaiting summer, new romance
When trees aflame sway  to dance,
Midnight wakes man's impassioned pyre
To whisk caprice into season's fire

Winter And The Night Sky Aflame

In last clear winter night  
I saw red light like a phoenix
a light careening downward
against the canvas of aphotic sky.

Present were the planets 
which aligned among constellations,
passenger planes embarking with clarity 
out on their own ways.

Had they seen it too? 

or was it a figment of an exhausting mind 
combined with my unreliable eyes,
projecting

Premium MemberFinger tips aflame

all of a sudden, with no warning at all
the universe bestowed a beauteous boon
space flickered setting our finger tips aflame
within our form shone both the sun and the moon 

as bliss furrows deepen, the energy grid brightens
there is no fixed pattern which we can discern
these days tip of the nose too oft tingles
enigmatic is God’s

As I Rose From Purple Slumberland, My Heart Red Aflame

As I rose from purple slumberland, my heart red aflame
There within crackling old bones was an itching in the game
Was there honorable valor in soul's deeper felt hate
Dare I tempt yet again the hard vicious hand of Fate
Last time, repercussions were almost impossible to bear
But scorching

Aflame

To everyone's surprise
The world is terrifying.
From that one thing you did
That was just a bit too intense today
To that stranger on the subway
That looked at you a little too hard.
Everything you can see elicits that
 Oh god, oh no, oh god
Beating of the heart in someones rib cage.
Do you think we're all just waiting
For the

*** Devoted — Soul Aflame ***

	( A Devotion Series Poem.   Written for our one, holy ABBA)

With a folding into 
 Divinely reaching Love —

My stilled soul in an instant,

Bursting flames

My Vision Aflame

Impossible to burst my bubble of invincibility
Invisible to all human beings, so I need a mere remedy
Scatterbrained, but I remain in my lane of thought again, again, again
It doesn’t matter that I’m drained anymore and defeated by a million men

My vision is a burning flame of fearless frustration
You lock lips with my lonely state of

Drowning Aflame

what ocean can i cross
without losing sight
of the shore?

i leapt forthwith into water
but water turned to flame
and fire turned to coal
and drowning, aflame
i burned
namelessly. 

i sank
into myself

i loved
love

i hated
hate

i needed

Energy funnel
From root to the crown
Pulsates with power
Divine magnetism 
Vivifies our form

Open secret
None can ferret
If we would know
Be to become

Bliss tremor
Joy shudder
Love caress

The light
Within

Eyes clenched in delight
Ecstatic shudder in spine
Climax without end
Feel the throb of bliss within
Ceaseless purring ignition

Premium MemberHeart Aflame

Spark,
aflame
in our heart;
burning passion,
thirst unquenchable.
No scope to compromise;
God connection the seeking,
wherein bliss throb within rises,
through paths full of divine surprises,
moment to moment, all moments entwined.

There then thus no doing to be performed,
save choosing to melt in love divine.
In silence and stillness we watch
as we are slowly transformed.
Form and formless align
under the love sign,
in timeless time.
Our

Capricious, a long haired 
Classical girl, long legs
Casually looks, eye
Contact, fiery young man,
Clearly hormones aflame,
Confidently walks with rose 
Converse, fait accompli!
