Magma I fan the best of embers past To make them bright and last and last I add no fuel for they were born Of things were here and now are gone. Some winds will stir the embers bright To give the echoes former light And warm the cockles of my heart To things remembered in their start. Things that flowed in beauties show Things that fell like newborn snow Things that blossomed like a flower Things that gave me living power Embers glow my memory place Fading fireflies making lace Wine and roses form the bind Those that come to seek my mind It is the fire of my abode The magma of eruptions mode |

I loved this...as I always love your work! I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |
