We burn towards a deeper shade of blue. As if the flame itself could not contain the ice-hot vision of this love. Fire dances to its own mad design. And our every effort to be free...only serves to feed the hunger of this madness. Nothing remains untouched. We must all burn and fall away to the ash blown winds of uncertainty. Only the fire stays behind. In the center of the flame stands the blue heart of desire. It holds the secret of all that ever burns. To this...to the hidden taste of fire - We give ourselves completely. To this...we burn towards the deepest blue. |

![]() (smiles) Oh Eric, the blue flame is truly the more purer shade beneath the crimson, sweet friend, the red and orange is all the ardor, but it has to start somewhere and the blue is the core of it all! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is gorgeous, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

To this...to the hidden taste of fire - We give ourselves completely. To this...we burn towards the deepest blue. And, blue is my favorite color. ![]() Thanks for this, Eric. I'm keeping it. Hugs ![]() Ethel |

Eric...you are not going to believe this, but it is true...I promise. Today, I was working on a poem in my head and it was called, "Deeper Shade of Blue." Honest! I was thinking of Procol Harum's "Whiter Shade of Pale." Do you know that song? A wonderful write, Eric. Just beautiful! Patricia |
