    Flicker lamp
    Light the way
    Of soft music
    Warm and deep
    Of gentle streams
    Quiet and powerful

    Dance, oh flame
    In tangible peace

    Flicker lamp
    Light the way
    For the journey's man trying to get home
    For the family seeking refuge from the cold

    Dance, oh flame
    In mystic surrender

    Flicker lamp
    Light the way
    Of the lotus flowers
    That sit among the muses
    Of the present moment
    Beautiful here now.

    How beautifully well written! I love your poem! My favorite verse is the last one. "Light the way of the lotus flowers that sit among the muses of the present moment beautiful here now." So pretty.

    Peace and love

    mmm I loved this part, loved the whole thing really. I like your ability to use the say "oh, flame" without sounding too formal/gospel-like. This has a nice, quiet beauty to it.
