The Fire of Life

Every day I bathe myself in light
and write my name in stars across the sky.
Every day I am the Fire  of Life, burning
with the intensity  of the Sun.The  Wind cannot

blow away such passion, nor Rain drown
the ash of love, knowing it will burn again.
Every day  Ibathe myself in light and dance

to the music that rivers make on their
way to the sea. The Earth hears  my prayers
and gives my body a familiar form,
feminine in nature , strong and surviving.

Every day I write my name
in stars across the Universe: I am love.
The power of my flame
rises with the fury of my dreams.
