We stand naked in the flames To melt of shields prodigious claims There passion laps the dew that beads the flesh Composed uncertain hedges, remodeled in fine thresh To cool in mime of breathy pillowed sighs More round and thorough these designs arise That bears of secret longings into fire’s purified rite Renewed in transformation that brings our dreams to light Our eyes the chalice for the heart of things Once worn upon the sleeve now rapt in silver wings Unshackled and undressed of false belief that yearns To stand within the fire - expanding as it burns Copyright Kkh 4/29/04 |

"Unshackled and undressed of false belief that yearns To stand within the fire - expanding as it burns" Outstanding!  "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

"Our eyes the chalice for the heart of things Once worn upon the sleeve now rapt in silver wings Unshackled and undressed of false belief that yearns To stand within the fire - expanding as it burns" Fabulous penning! Really liked this last verse a lot and the way you look at things, TD! |

Our eyes the chalice for the heart of things Once worn upon the sleeve now rapt in silver wings Unshackled and undressed of false belief that yearns To stand within the fire - expanding as it burns Oh glory days, you are such a delight to read Kathleen~ As always, I am in awe of your talents, and touched by your gentle way with words. |
