When the blue skies opened, revealing an orange glow, I knew the time had come to sit by your fire, and listen. Not to talk. Not to question. Just to listen. And from within the warmth of gentlest words, I did come to understand more completely why I have always been attracted to the heart of the flame. For the heat of life and truth burn constant, without flicker, visible to those willing to spend a moment as kindling. I am kindling. |
