Fire
The quickening and quivering
Of flames raging too near to fear
The destruction and consumption
Of fire’s hunger here now to clear
The inferno and tornado of fire
Of wind whipping, feeding the needing
The trauma and the drama desire
Of natures elements seeding & receding
Earth, wind, water, fire ALL at play
Who’s balancing and rebalancing
Who’ actions gone a stray? ♾️
With Natures’ indiscriminatory way
May we evolve our equanimity relay
May the afterwards
of ashes and psychic gashes,
Be held by all our elements at play
May the Fire in each of our belly’s
be for Loving kindness in the impermanence,
as we are OF Nature
Interdependent on all of our
elements balanced, rebalanced,
May afterwards of the fire
Be our awakened collective respire
