Ask the flame...

"Why do you burn?"

And hear the whisper of
your name in falling
ashes.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

For you it said in it's light
For you it said in darkening debris
For you it said as it laid ashes

To build another light

And I step closer
to embrace the flame
to hear my name

two hearts now burning
the fire reaching high
into the sky
in supreme devotion
so bright the light
a moment's glory
before we die

we are the gift
to the night

from the ashes
early in the morn
in the colors of dawn
love is reborn

Just a few sacred words from you are enough
to form a whole orchestra of emotions.

Absolutely awesome!

I love you,
Margherita

Eric, you are a master of short but powerfully thought provoking poems.

Well done.

smiling wide

you are the master of this--

I do so admire your ability to convey through implication.
