Bonfire

Look within the darkness, through out the fire, even the smoke reveals the unseen.

A land of past and present spirits enlightening and dancing within the flames

Hidden secrets whispered amongst the cracklings as the embers burn with energy

Purposes of their presence revealed as they have disguised themselves between the darkness and light

As the fire turns, channeling, bringing fourth the power of what has and is meant to be.

The hearth of warmth grows brighter as one rejoices and anticipates the next gathering 

Ignite

What is it about even a flame from a candle that seems to help diminish any worries with steady eyes of intention.

The captivating dance allows for nothing but the illumination to gently sweep away anything negative plaguing the mind.

Instead the mind is filled with curiosity of the light.

Dancing to a song only the deaf can hear.

The power to destroy or restore passion and creativity is bound by ...

past, present and future circumstances.

Just a reminder of no matter how big or small everything has an effect on you.

 Ones will is like a flame with its power in their grasp; The creator of fear and hope, the dictator of what allows to be spread, is amongst us all as individuals as the flame gathers power amongst its duty of purpose of what it is fed.

acceptance

When two souls find the special moment between the awkward silences and the risk to once again open their hearts to someone new, they feel the fire spark instantaneously; knowing no matter the mundane environment they surround themselves together in they are absolutely beside themselves to be sharing it with one another. That timeless moment shared when two willing souls connect on a level deeper than just understanding one another, it's a recognition that they themselves were never uncompleted but just waiting to be physically united with their twin flame. Giving a companion for life's journey to share every step with unconditional love and acceptance.

Due Time

I want my heart to dance again

I want my smile to feel the never ending glow

I want those nights of never ending wishes

I want to feel my tummy joyously turn

To feel the warmth of true love's kiss

To breathe the ease of care and forgiveness

A soulful bond of continuous positive spirits

The place I call home,

Beside my true lovers accepting mind, body and heart

A Days Notice

I grab a blank peice of paper and stare between the lines

staring endlessly at what I would normally use for words

An emotion too deep to carelessly wrap in any kind of poem

a heart forced to face remains of what was a well thought out dream

as poetic as any love should be but not all surfaced like we wanted it to be

so here is my days notice of what coulda, woulda, shoulda been

receiving nothing but a blank piece of paper folded with intention

once it unfolds you see nothing at first; a blank piece of paper, no words

but as you look closer you'll see what is in plain sight

the paper is more crinkled on the outside from where I was holding on too tight

the lines with water smudges from crying the other night

the intense brightness of the paper where not even a kiss of pencil had dulled its white.

the loss of appetite to put fourth even the smallest of efforts

the restriction of breathing and unforced tears come too easily

you entered with a boom and left like the wind

an all too familiar thing on your end

Give yourself a day for the intended depth

let the familiar ring of past efforts no longer have meaning

as we both know some things don't take but a day to lose
