Be The "Fire!" (As A Metaphor For Passionate Creativity)

Whenever you are
cold and lonely,
be the "fire!"

If you find yourself
down and out,
be the "fire!"

When nobody
else dares to,
be the "fire!"

Or should all
else fail you,
be the "fire!"

Because the
love of God is you
and that's the "fire!"

My Writing Notes:

The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: "The love of God is you and that's the 'fire!'" (By the way, I mean the word "fire" as a metaphor for passionate creativity.)

And this poem was also published on my "Three Dark Horses" and "Small All White in the Forest" blogs (please see the hyperlinks below for the blogs), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message I am trying to convey through "Three Dark Horses" and "Small All White in the Forest." Plus, I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message I am trying to convey through my new "The Oneness Of God" spiritual practice!

This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.
