Enlighten me into the universe of intrigue
Where spontaneous combustion
Explodes within endless possibilities
Sparkling particles in trails of brilliance
Of illumination that opens the darkness

Of words building the love of passion
Boiling in sensuous steam
Climbing the mountains peaks
Setting off fireworks of lavender spice

Let the spirituality ride
The wild stallion of exhilaration
Prancing so high
You rise above adversity

Let me have your warmth
Cradled in my heart
Creating magical storms
That intertwines with the winds
In electrifying static release
Of the Northern Lights

Walking as one, support the masterpiece
Of a free-spirited flight of just plain living
Where the words join us in bonds of friendship
Not in a inferno of negativity
Enlighten your spirit
Smile inside the brilliance
Of the mirror of self respect

Thought: In order for the world to get better you have to enlighten it not drown in it.

(smiles) Oh my gosh, this is so very true, sweet friend, even while the world can seem like such a sad place it does no good causding harm to others but rather embracing it with love so then it may give others the same impression and slowly we can begin to rebuild! (sigh) This is a wonderfully optimistic poem, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and liht always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Exactly...we are to be candles,
but certainly not infernos....
