Best Eternal Flame Poems
Without you, the days are so long
& sometimes it's hard to just carry on.
You gave life & love to all things
The joy of giving was what you would bring.
I see your smile inside my head,
It just isn't fair that you have to be dead.
I know you suffered though all the while
You held your head high & even would smile.
As I watched you go through it, I always had hope,
Even when we came to the end of the rope.
Everything that we went through
Helped make us closer & more loving too.
Through ups & downs you always were strong
Even when you knew you didn't have long.
Life can be kind & cruel in the same,
But you will live on forever because of loves eternal flame.
During the Christmas holidays a candle is continuously lit.
It is in your memory to let you know I'll never forget.
Each year that passes gets harder than I like to admit.
I sit by the fire reminiscing while I smoke a midnight cigarette.
Your vanilla scented candle burns on the coffee table.
I admit when you passed I wasn't mentally stable.
You would be proud of me because eventually I pulled myself together.
I remember you warned me so many times you wouldn't be here forever.
You were my superwoman, I believed you were tough as steel.
This candle along with your memory helps me to heal.
It's kinda like you're right here with me.
I think of you as I put each ornament on the Christmas tree.
Tears roll down my cheek as I whisper your sweet name.
Inside my heart resides your eternal flame.
*I love you momma Merry Christmas Queen.....

A baby is born
Dawns a new morn
A centenarian passes away
Sad close to a day
A new life arrives
An older departs --
Transmitted, the flame
~ of a human heart
The flames still strong
And the light is burning bright
As it did when you ignited it
On our very first night
This unbridled passion
Still lives in my soul
And the physical attraction
I’m still unable to control.
Mind-boggling emotions
Still envelope my being
As it’s your enticing form
In my dreams I am seeing.
Our years have not diminished
And our love is still there
The way we stay true
To the honesty we share.
Bestowed this wondrous gift
From the universal unknown
We are rewarded with happiness
In our devotion that’s shown.
So I look at you now
With a little more age in your face
But as beautiful as ever
As you've aged with such grace
I am blessed to have had you
For so many wonderful years
So full of joy and happiness
It brings me to tears.
I love you even more
Than that very first day
And grateful that through the years
You've decided to stay.
Every day with you is a pleasure
And not one of them is the same
But one thing has been constant
It’s my loves eternal flame.
During the Christmas holidays, a candle is continuously lit.
It is to your memory to let you know that I’ll never forget..
I sit by the fire reminiscing while I smoke a midnight cigarette.
Your vanilla scented candle burns on the coffee table.
You would be proud of me, because eventually I pulled myself together.
I remember you warned me so many times you wouldn’t be here forever.
You were my superwoman, I believed you were tough as steel!
This candle, along with your memory helps me to heal.
It’s kinda like you’re right here with me.
I think of you as I put each ornament on the Christmas tree.
Tears roll down my cheek as I whisper your sweet name.
Inside my heart resides your eternal flame!!

A magical stroll through the woods I go.
Petrichor filling my sense of smell.
This connection I’m feeling is more I know,
Content I be whilst my inhibitions fell.
The wind blowing my thoughts to every tree,
As birds sing softly raising my spirit higher,
I’ve now come to realise all that I see,
All as one from the great eternal fire.
Each of us walk this earth alone,
Crossing paths with others on the way,
Exchanging our thoughts never set in stone,
For each step we take, and foot we lay.
Leaving these woods will be a hard test,
Not breaking any bonds, just moving on.
Summerland awaits me, so I may rest,
Above all clouds which the sky rests upon.
I hold a light
That barely flickers in the night,
It's wick almost drowned
In the melted wax tears,
Yet it willfully holds on
Burning a bright blue.
It is the candle lit in your name,
And I have waited
A lifetime for it to die,
For a strong wind to
Blow it out, or
A Light to eclipse its glow.
Still it burns,
Faintly, but steadily,
The eternal flame
You lit all those years ago.
Lost in the darkness, found in the light.
Hidden in a fortress,
Safety surrounds you in the night.
Too hot to touch, So brightly burning.
Missing each other so much,
And yet the feeling is yearning.
Clasped together in a fiery embrace;
Two bodies becoming one.
Silhouettes outlined with the fingers' trace.
Nothing but ashes left when all is done.
Flames growing stronger,
Reaching toward Luna mother.
Passion that can't last much longer;
As we spirits of old cling to each other.
Say a prayer, a blessing, a spell
For our love to outlast all others.
Do you hear the ringing of the Celtic Bells
As our wish is granted by our Goddess Mothers.
Paula Denise Cosner
Quote: The ability to harness fire lives in all humans.
Explore it, and you will understand its importance
Nourish its flame and it will always keep you alive.

The fire that burns within me is my soul's town crier
like the stars and the moon hungering for night's pyre
I too hunger for the flames of love's passionate desire
I am a blaze of light sparking like a matchstick to a fire
when I'm at the steeple I cannot climb any higher
I become an eternal flame, a majestic vast empire.

Contest Name Which fire is eternal
No matter how hard I try to forget it's exotic pleasure;
You have overruled the boundaries I dared to excape.
I will now explore the beauty of everything about you
From a far, where I can be it's burning flame.
Just knowing I want it, but can never have it, just makes
me want it that much more.
So here I plea this conduct of A sexual act in favor, to a wet
n' wild dream between the corners of your mind.
Where I have just given you a full report which
lays within my correspondence; I have lead
you in suspense.... With me in mind of an
Eternal Flame against your desires....
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

A Spark in time
Shining ever so Bright
Through the darkness
Of this Life
Guided by... God's Holy Light
With Satan's fiery darts
Always missing our Eternal Spark
Which in turn
Spark shall remain
Continue... to grow
Without Blemish or Blame
Forever Love... Flows
Into God's Eternal Flame
Remember...Keep your Eternal Spark Love growing
Into God's Glorious Flaming Fire... ~Burning Bush~
you were stealing me from myself
my mitochondria, a little under the name,
while I was unmoored, talking to a mirror
who did not recognize me, caked in heat and dust
touching my tissues and blood
under the ignited roof of the tower,
walking with crutches to wipe the tears,
religion, open pyres, I am still stained
near a lantana thicket, amorous, talking
to death, pirates grabbing the winds,
migration of a whole waxed population
in black air
stalkers have a corrugated mind and
serial killers a mournful voice
SATISH VERMA
Quail's egg high heels thick ginger hair
Diamonds and sapphires brides smile
Set the doves free group photo ceremony
Pretty freckles rice powder gold brocade
Long green satin dresses latin speeches
Gold chained effigies omens bells tassles
Tiered powdered flower cake dessert buffet
Gorgeous new shiny spectacular limosine
Fiery nostrils snorting Black silk and pearls
Wooly dogs wooden faces wreath of flowers
Shaved head Myrtle and laurel arch Rosebuds
You're my sweet heart through all of eternity
My salvation with total serenity
You're my North Star when I am lost
I'd find my home at any cost
You're my desire when I am defeated
When all hope is lost and totally depleted
I can find you with my undying devotion
Watching our love set in unstrained motion
Losing you would be a horrible fate
For the "ONE" in my life, my beautiful soul mate
I would be doomed and accept no fame
Because you're my only eternal flame
