A Flame's Ignition
Lazy days crash against musical nights,
soft tones touch the light of history's smiles
and frowns that spin time's anticipation.
Here in the folded notions I find love,
surrounded by sparks of generous dreams,
there's a flame's ignition in the spirit.
Long summer shadows stretch themselves over
the heart's delicious finery and fade -
though their presence remains inside this mind.
Butterflies and angels flip flowered songs
along visionary highways of silk,
strands of passion which twist in God's cool breath.
