Reclaiming the Light

cutting my way through
an overgrown forest
I felt strong...
moving through bramble
and branches
I got to a clearing
where I came upon the seductive
crescent of a Moon against an ink black sky
the Moon whispered to me and
the world of matter and material things
shrank and fell away

it's funny how in one moment
your whole world can change

before me, down a winding path
and on a grassy glowing hill
sparks flew from a raging fire
I walked over to the fire burning
in the midst of the moon-lit clearing
and roasted my heart in the fire of love

and in that magical moment
of the Fiery Moon
in the moonlight
with the flames dancing
I could finally see you clearly
