Embrace Of Fire Known not what tomorrow may bestow Fate’s golden locks, lightning by in speeds of glory go Needs bubble, simmering as molten springs, her truth it brings This earthly realm, a thin and temporary shell, ablaze she clings For the pierce of the Archer’s arrow finds home The poetry and voice that otherwise cannot realize the tone A spirit of fire that burns, raising flames to heaven render Seeking him, in bold red arms, aching to be tender Certainly the burn, such light that as immortal music’s waif Changing colors as it dances on the hearth of faith Hot enough to last the deep time promise of wise will One heart, quivers to be held in place, the flame made still That he knows his strength and courage to be sovereign These arms require no vice, entrapments ice, protective covering Once ignited, the soul’s china cheek to blush in ruddy lust Smooth, and infinite glows her skin beneath his touch For he holds her, as the chaste and visage splendor of his dream Clarity delights his eyes, and melts the harsh ice castles cream She burns, a fire that will not succumb, shapes changing to be one This all economy once roving eyes, inside his soul she thrives as sun Known not what tomorrow may bestow Fate’s golden locks, lightning by in speeds of glory go Needs bubble, simmering as molten springs, this song she sings He gathers her in arms that will not break, nor fears ablaze she brings Copyright Kkh 11/28/06 |

Maybe the title should be “The White Fay”, or “White Ghost”, or “The Queen to be from Gwenhwyfar.” Reminds me of Guinevere and King Arthur A Welsh epic. A wonderful read!! JL  Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |

The entire poem is awesome, but these lines felt very good to me. For he holds her, as the chaste and visage splendor of his dream Clarity delights his eyes, and melts the harsh ice castles cream She burns, a fire that will not succumb, shapes changing to be one This all economy once roving eyes, inside his soul she thrives as sun Known not what tomorrow may bestow Fate’s golden locks, lightning by in speeds of glory go Needs bubble, simmering as molten springs, this song she sings He gathers her in arms that will not break, nor fears ablaze she brings |

Grand title! : “Embrace Of Fire”! This is again verse where some of the lines and phrases are virtually ‘poems’ in and of themselves....such as: ‘immortal music’s waif ‘; and powerful imagery! : “inside his soul she thrives as sun”...or “Needs bubble, simmering as molten springs, this song she sings”...or: “Once ignited, the soul’s china cheek to blush in ruddy lust”...etc. Wow!...much applause! |
