Born of Fire

Born of fire,
Riding the twisting smoke, rising to Heaven,

Our spirits joined in sacred dance,
We sing in rejoice of our bodies and selves,
Spiralling upward toward sky and stars

My soul caresses your spirit,
The fire of our desires sending us higher and higher
To the oblivion of self and God

Your breath sears my hungering mouth
As my body enwraps you
And my heart leaps in joyous response

The heat of your passion
The fire in my heart,
The thirst of our bodies quenches in
Each other’s celebration of Love and Self

My life gathers together within
Swirling around my body and soul,
Dancing with your soul,
Becoming a new symphony of
Ecstacy, Exultation, and Affirmation.

We let go, letting each into places we have not been ourselves.

In the instant of release we become more than we were,
More of ourselves, and more of each other.

Having proclaimed ourselves, ourself, and our Life
To what was, is, and will be,
We embrace our souls and ourselves in quiet rest.
