Like a flame, a changing state.
Consuming with sweet satisfaction;
All who chance to seek her grace.

Warm the fearful, light the dark;
Spiral skyward tiny spark;
Liquify the heart at last;
Leave behind a taste of ash.

The flame

Contributed by softerware on Monday, 23rd May 2016 @ 06:05:57 PM in AEST
Topic: StoryPoetry

Loves a chemical reaction;
Like a flame, a changing state.
Consuming with sweet satisfaction;
All who chance to seek her grace.

Warm the fearful, light the dark;
Spiral skyward tiny spark;
Liquify the heart at last;
Leave behind a taste of ash.

Wow...this is really cool, Soft. A departure from your style, and I will say I like it very much. I hope you do more like this.

Poetry is like the guitar....there are chords, picking, finger picking, bars, tremelo, etc etc. Each is cool in their own way and require a new method to implement.

You already are master of the universe for your style....now you set out to take on new dimensions, and you storm the gates in force with this accomplishment.

You might say I like this.
