Love Fires
Love fires burn a tender flame,
Inextinguishable,
No matter the storm or rain.
A small spark,
A slow flame,
And then a blazing furnace,
When love fires burn.
Forest fires will eventually go out,
A candle will burn itself out,
The coal in the fireplace will go out,
Love fires once lit,
Will burn to eternity,
Love fires never go out.
I’m grateful this is true in my life, but I never take that love fire for granted. I am not naive enough to think it’s true for everyone. Some are smothered. Some are drowned. Some are covered by dirt. Some die for lack of attention. It takes fuel to keep the fire burning!
So true. It takes a lot of work to keep the fires burning!
