Blown away

further studies in minimalism in the Enamouring Fire series

a Mystic candle
enamouring Fire
             is so light --

shimmering tenuously
lurching shadows
            and listening

intensely disinterested
neither attracted
             nor compelled --

only
waiting
with storms all around

Author's Note

-- dead forms and rituals like labels cannot keep pace with Truth as its revelations are always roiling and writhing Beauties for eyes that see and change for Hearts with wings of why that fly in rhythms rising on thermals of wonder to the farther sky --

Reviews

[Blackbirdsong]

This is a calm to this poem that is most compelling. The calm in the midst of troubles is what true calm is. Nothing can dampen it or destroy. That is what true inner peace is. What a wonderful poem to come to at the end of the day.

[An Ordinary Woman]

This poem is stunning, the thought of a candle or flame 'listening' is wonderfully delightful.

intensely disinterested
neither attracted
nor compelled ... I love this, thank you for this image !!

for minimalism this is still lush, beautiful writing with its own depth of tone and vibrance. Well done.

Holding on to the still place in the face of adversity. Well told.
