Light my Fire
The inner light that shines from within us… can burn as bright as the stars
An aura of sunshine like rays that blaze from our every pore
It directs our paths like a beacon in all that we do, all that we are
In smiles, laughter, kind deeds, care, concern and service
Giving and sharing that flame with strangers, those we meet and have feelings for
Sometime the light shines so brightly, it blinds us
We fail to see that some will use our radiance for their own gain
Some will try to abuse, will greedily take and take
Never giving the fuel needed in return
To ensure our fires continue to burn
But rather they sinisterly silently try to dim it.
Some of us go about on our day to days
Not realizing our inner lighthouse has slowly faded away
Until someone..somewhere.. with their torches bright
Stir our embers buried beneath cold ashes
Igniting the passions of our dusty synapsis
Providing the kindling to our inner flame
To peek out from the shadows and burn again.
(For those that inspire with words and kindness…my Darling, the Lovely flower, the Beautiful kat, Mr. VP, Sir, and many more… thank you)

What one thing gives everything its value?
Sharing.
Samantha, dear friend, this is of great value. A shining example of sharing in its purest form.
You have all my money. Will you take a check? :)
Requires applause from all who read, and care.
