FLAME OF LIFE

The power within the flame of life

Enlightens the dark passways.

 

Blessings on the gifts of fire ~

Warmth and heat and burning and bright.

We cannot lose the way in darkness

While we have light and fire.

Enabling all life

Yet not penetrating to the seas uttermost depths.

So light empowers and illuminates.

It is the light within

That is our guide, wayfarer.

 

Dream upon the colours of fire.

The element of immolation and consummation.

The distant element of sun that greets

Earth as she turns in time.

Bless fire for light and flame of joy.

THE RIVER

Swim with the flow ~

Against the stream only fish go.

Sit with the rock,

Bend with the reeds

Or dive onwards to the sea.

 

Runs the river of earth’s veins

And beside the flowing water

Life flourishes ~

Tread gently wayfarer

And seek the river

To the heart’s content.

FRIENDS

Consider friends as roses –

With the perfume of kind words.

Accept the thorns.

 

 

The heart is flower to dance

In the afternoon sunshine.

Be glad for Earth’s smiling blossoms.

 

 

Dream in peace and joy upon the rose

Singing in the air

And find the thorn protects the flower.
