A Fire

Gentle wind, dance in my ear
Tease with whispers of snow covered peaks
and the soft valley below.

An ocean of darkness demands attention,
never neglecting the lone ship, but instead
comforts and caresses.

Flicker not once, but burn everlasting,
and let my heart taste of your flame.
Your eyes consume me.

And I feel lost........
Not in abandon, but in love,
the gentle comfort of none other

Than you.
