Caching Fire

We all have an inner flame

An inner light

With an inner voice

I have lost my flame

The only thing that burns

Is the cold of the extinguished

Soul

My life is rekindling

The fire is slowly bursting

Into a glowing ember

That has the potential

To become a ragging blaze

I am understanding myself

A little better every day

Thanks to the examples

Of those angels

That are not afraid to

Let their flame

Catch fire the souls

Of our immortal being

The lesson is to be yourself always

To not allow the freezing criticisms

Smother your living being

It is your true self

Your inner being

That will catch the world

A flame

Angels in My Life

Do you believe in guardian angels?

I did not use to

 But that change along time ago

It is my experience that

Guardian angels

Are not angelic

They are people

Everyday “normal” people

And they are here for you

When you least expect them

An old saying that

When the student is ready the teacher will appear

Cannot be more true

There are angels in my life

 I can recognize a few

They come and go

Some stay around

I know one from middle school

Guardian angels

Being there for me

And they don’t even know

To what extent

And to what end

They have helped

My life
