Fire-Tenders All
~*Willow White Feather*~
~*SkyeLara*~
~*Marge Tindal*~


This quiet soul in sweeping keep
tends the ashes of hearts in weep
Knowing it is my mission true
to do the things that I must do
To hold the tears of those in pain
until once more they can maintain
a semblance of the life they knew
before the loss made them so blue
I stir the embers with heartfelt knowing
that I have been where they now are going
Across the chasm of deepest divide
without a loved one at their side
I hold the tears of gut-wrenched surrender
I’m called on to be this souls fire-tender~

Today, as I am called upon … I summon strength
from ~Willow White Feather~ and ~SkyeLara~
~I do what I can do … I listen~


~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost,
the spirit rejoices over what it has left.
- Sufi epigram <))><

hugs and luvs, Marti

The listen of the heart is truest in the fall of souls.
Loved this Marge.
