DANCING FLAMES








"Inspired" sigs






DANCING FLAMES
 
Dancing flames of fire bright
Welcomes warmly my icy feet
Outside the world is turning white
In wintry showers of snow and sleet
 
Listening to the north wind blow
Howling at the window pane
Watching drifting flakes of snow
Cover vacant fields beside the lane
 
I bathed in glow of joyful heat
Greedy flames devouring coals
In cosiness of armchair seat
Mused of eternal flames burning souls
 
Coal shaped figures did appear
In front of drooping sleepy eyes
And in fancy I could hear
Gnashing teeth and bitter cries
 
Escape the flames; my imagined cry
My eyes transfixed to fiery glow
Come to Jesus with sins scarlet dye
And be washed whiter than the snow
 
At fireside a lesson learned
Of drifting snow and licking flame
Then closed my eyes as fire burned
As sleep crept in and overcame
 
Colin Moffett
