Igniting the Inner Light
When the body shivers with fear
And the eyes drip pearly tears
It `s time to get seated upright
And the inner light to ignite;
When clouds of despair shroud the mind
And it is tough one`s path to find
It `s fitting at oneself to sight
And the inner light to ignite;
When the spirit is at low ebb,
Woven inside a spider`s web,
There is need to cease inner fight
And the inner light to ignite;
When the soul is veiled with darkness
And life is sunk in sheer sadness
It is incumbent to seek light
And the inner light to ignite.
Autumn leaves make the crisp air
Uncommonly warm and bright;
Theater for the eyes.
Undertones of red, orange, yellow, and green;
My mind returns to discovery days in Sawtooth forests or Sierra
Nevada meadows where sheep roam from high country to Nevada ranches.
Lively mountain climbs to lakes of glass
Encircled with aspens, willows, cottonwoods, and pine.
Awash in a painter's brush of
Vesicles; small splatters of autumnal colors.
Electrically igniting my memories
Scattered from childhood to adult.
She sleeps alone in a four poster bed
Under silken sheets of the finest thread.
To dream he’ll be there for her, waiting
To know his love for her is still not abating.
To give him again her total surrender
As was before, joyously to remember.
In a meadow on a scented bed of wild flowers
Too float as to heaven, for hours and hours.
She dreams of this new love; miraculously found.
A love her heart tells her must never rebound.
To recall the joy of his exploring caress
Igniting her passion, that must never be less.
Touching a breast, past voluptuous hips
Each seeking the others devouring lips.
Playing his skill on the keys of her soul.
Lost in a passion now out of control
To elicit her cries 'til his manliness spent.
Embraced as forever, love’s purpose as meant.
Favourite flames play in my mind,
Igniting a precious find,
Rages through the very being,
Elated, I find me freeing;
In Your Presence, I am refreshed,
Good waves wash over me afresh,
Never have I felt so cosy,
Instantly, I'm pink and rosy,
To these comforting thoughts I cling,
Imagination - What joy you bring!
Near You is where I want to be,
Great God, You're my eternity.
Musing over these fiery thoughts,
Eternal blessing have I got.

(I've often imagined myself to be God's favourite child and that fire of imagination makes me feel blessed)
Be that igniting force
To lift someone up
Encourage the students to do their best
So they can climb towards the top
Teach them to always work hard
In order to reach their goals
Zero in on your target
Education is brain food for the soul
aura and presence
of her blazing spirit
soul shifting transformations
karmic consequences
plunging like a king fisher
in the wilderness
of her sacred ocean
flowing water
of power and love
her prismatic eyes
penetrating blissful
lightning bolt of ascended truth
leading me into dark abyss
jolting and stirring
long lost desires

Beyond cloister walls surrounding my heart,
Lies the deep well of my immortal tears.
Shrouded by darkness while cloaked by love’s art,
My crimson heart’s trapped in my body’s mere.
Chambers of tissue with dungeons so stark,
Defeat the challenge on each tier.
Rescue me, from loneliness’ grand sea,
Come conquer my love and set my heart free,
I’m warming up from the shivering cold,
Tangled up in my sheets of solitude.
You’re igniting my flame deep in my soul,
The closer you get, my heart’s in the nude.
As shadows dance to flickering hot coals,
Come liberate me from being so prude.
You’re a goddess of knight fighting for me,
A maiden of pride with fairness to thee.
Liberation is key, in love’s sole reign,
As you swiftly battle to win my love.
The things we face are inflicting sharp pains,
For those are the struggles we face because,
It’s worth fighting for the ones we belove,
Nothing amounts to that happiness gained.
It’s you who conquered love, stealing my heart,
Unchained my captive soul for a new start.
