The Light Of Fireflies

I embrace her fire
Burning in me
With blind ambition
For her Love
Has become my soul's flame
And it needs expressing
Or I shall implode
Beneath the fiery sea
Of her silver shadowed
Complexities
And driving insinuations
As a daily renewal of my soul
And manifesting
As her,
On these pages
So white
And so pristine
-----------------------------------
Her unequaled quintessence
Lifts off of night's rivers
Gleaming
Like the light of fireflies
On midnight trysts
Sharing their energetic offerings
Of Love
In its rarest form
That of pure energy
Altered
By the tintinnabulation
Of her wedding bells
Innate
Attraction
------------------------------------
In my mind she rings true
So sensual
In her silken
Come hither glances
The whitest of the white-hot
Romances
That my life
Has ever known
For,
She has instilled in me
A magic
Born,
From the Light
Of Fireflies....
