SONG OF FIRE

The soft glow of a flickering flame
Warms the soul as it burns
memories from the past surface
Recalling favored thoughts
Relaxing the tensions of the body
Your mind flows free
Branching out in all directions
Touching forethoughts of desires
Drawn in by the dance of fire
You fall deeper in thought
Travel thru time takes you back
Then in an instant you jump ahead
Scenes of a hopeful future appear
Thoughts and visions intertwine
Shapes of the flames come to view
Sparks fly about spontaneously
Drifting upward in a draft
Softly,quietly,the wood burns
Crackling as it gives off heat
The smell of the wood fills the room
A gentle smile grows
This comfort is pleasing
Lost in a realm of your own
There is no fear present
The fire entices calmness
Inviting your mind to drift
While your body is still
You're hypnotized by its dance
Taken by the song of fire
As it whispers out to you
