all waits for release

The fire burns time away
As the smoke billows
Leaving ash of the seconds gone
Eaten by the ravenous
Insatiable movement that
Can never cease
Always forward
Sometimes upward
The heat how it spreads
Like memories
Like emotion pouring over the
Sky that is you and I
We can never cease to be
Only cease to hold this physical body
Before we too are released
As smoke for ashes, returning to the light
For we are all candles of God
Candles of Creation, slowly returning home
To again melt into the
Eternal flame that is all
Feel it inside your bones
The yearning to return
The campfire shows us the way
Inside its happiness of energy release
Caressing our faces with warmth
The stars shine down in cosmic
Circles, revolving around one
As we all revolve around the Sun
That blazing candle that will
Envelope all in due time
We are expanding
We are nearing nirvana
We are birds in a tornado
We are marching on precious stones
These mountains rise to the clouds
While leaves bow to the glowing orb
All waits for release, all is already there.
