IS THIS BURNING AN ETERNAL FLAME?

In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

~ Albert Schweitzer

Eternal Flame by The Bangles

 

Candle In The Dark

 

We cross the meadow; cannot wait

impatient for the golden hour

that time of day when sunlight dazzles

dappled shade of trees and flowers

suffuses light as soft as silk

paints the sky with buttermilk.

When darkness comes I'm unafraid

you're there with me my hand in yours

We light a fire within our hearts

you are my candle in the dark

The burning flames that dance and flickr

rekindle love that once shone bright

the shimmering heat is visible

like mottled glass before the light

the last vestige of watery sun

falls silently into the night

Our initials in the fire

retrace the pattern of desire

and let the sweetness of the hour

burn in our memories forever
