fire

Guiding Star

What is this world?
A whisper in an open meadow
Alive for a moment
Disappearing into air

What are you?
A ray that emanates
From an eternal Light
Born of a fire
That needs no oil or wood

Listen my child
All thats happened
Is but a gentle reminder
That you were made to
Surrender in patient faith

Tilt your face
To the place of prayer
And give yourself up
In both
Humility and trust

Do this.
Unveil the guiding star
On this journey you walk
So when the darkness comes
You’ll see the light
And know the way

Your Love has set my soul on fire
And you, my dear, are precious air
Come and feed my burning flames
So we may dance as one forever

But you’ve also burnt my edges
Tangled yourself around me
I want to swerve into nothing
Until it sets us free

So enter in this passion
Until your being melts away
And rise up as an amber
Flying in freedom’s name

My dear, you are my oasis
Stop hovering and come rest in me
My love is patiently waiting
Because fire is when you’re with me

Life is worthless without the highest love
Life is priceless within the highest love

What is richness, but that of soul?
Even Gold, can’t afford buying love

Help yourself, help the world
The whole universe is crying love!

Why the wait? jump right in
head first; transform in the fires of love

Burn your heart to ash and dust
Be reborn again, in this undying love

My first attempt at a ghazal. Not as easy as it seems!!

I dreamt last night
Of a fire raging
In the depths of my soul

It melted my heart
Purifying the dirt
I was burned in the fires of Love

When time was ripe
The waters poured forth
Birthing life to a sacred growth

Surrendered I received
Showers of mercy
Drenched in waters of Love

I dreamt of a glowing face
Emanating a sacred light
Who was He?

Enmity dissolved
Serenity remained
and the deepest Love

I awoke this morning
In blissful peace
The world is beautiful

I am Love and Love is me
