Best Fire Burning Within Poems

I look out across the ice 
towards an igloo in the distance
It is like a diamond sparkling in the night
I see a fire burning within it's centre
Refracting light through the crystallized walls

I walk towards the light
There are dogs basking in the warm glow
I feel the...

You know a magnet exists not from its form, but from its effects.
Many things are like that, I suppose. 
Last night, I had a few glasses of wine; normally, one will suffice.
But I fear there was a kind of fire burning within me that needed...

I was born with the spirit and soul of a writer. The cathexis to invest emotions,
and have a great affection for my poetry.  I love the children born of my pen
and pour my heart into each write. My pen bleeds emotions. Love, agony and
ecstasy,...

L,

You walk by, you stare
not perfection but you're drawn
to its unique flair

blue shingles caressing
the night time sky

intrigue enters the picture
and you start to see
inside the sheerness
the classic curtains
with a touch of grey

you get closer and feel
a fire burning within
warming up the wind
there is comfort in...

I am a man
I love, I hate, I bet on bad games
Why do I cry like a schoolgirl
who's relationship went sour
Why do I wish this way my final hour
What is this fire burning within me
It's bringing me close to death,
Yet it slowly saves me
She will...

This is the closest that I have ever been to  a funeral for more than forty years, a young boy just eighteen was shot dead for stealing
I sat quietly on the school veranda and watch the hearse drive into the yard and parked on...

As I felt her hands trace the lines of my body
I began to think thoughts that I shouldn’t
And soon enough, I find myself submitting
To the desires of flesh, all because of her!
Am I this weak or do I just crave her, tell me?
Regardless, I love...

The ground is painted and the sky is torn
An old man passes and a baby is born
The war is over but the memories are strong
My time is coming; It can’t be long

The heroes are gone their stories engraved
They took their glory to the grave
The world...

mind in soul
body entwine in heart
making the thrist of fire enrage

devastation is near 
waiting and wanting 
the passionate that lingers near

standing in the shadows not far
but with in eyesight a strange figure
walks slowly out into the moon light 

walking towards me 
as rain is coming...

Strips of being here are drawn all over you, fine lines intertwining with your skin,
It is not within the whites of dainty skies to praise who you are,
I hope you don't hide the only thing that makes you, you,
That unique spark, that fire burning deep...

I wish I wish this Christmas wish
Upon one star above
I wish for another to see this star
And wish to find my true love

With snowflakes falling
You will see through the clouds
A bright star gleaming
Showing you the way to my heart

A fire burning within my soul
Will keep...

I'm Aching
Their is no faking 
the fake that I want you
  I can't erase you from my mind
 No matter how many times I try
   Your perfect
   My eyes have never seen
    anything so breath taking

A fire dreams inside a pit
Cosy as it starts to glow
Matching the fire burning within
Seeping in the warmth it throws.

Her flames now reflecting in my eyes
Amber coloured hot ribbons of light
The sparks now fly, with crackling sounds
The wind helping it, in it’s crazy dance

The need...

Culture Redefined

An immensehood of desire
A cold fire burning within
Let the eye to learn burn within
Where failure is seen as another chance to try again
Give yourself a culture where redefinition is bound to revisit
And inspiration a fuel to set you right
A culture redefined where goodness is...

Snowflakes swirl outside the window
As the fire burns embers, keeping me warm
Glowing inside a winter globe of white
Cold wind moves the air into night
As winter whistles songs
You are my fire, burning within
Inspiring my words to flow, alive again
Moving fresh, falling lightly onto pages
As the snow...
