I see the flames on a far away horizon
Curious cat,
I take the path leading me to Orange hue.
Stumbling along, on stone filled path,
Learning to avoid edges so sharp,
Singing tonelessly, whistling away,
I walk with joyful gait.
I see the beauty, beckoning me close to that brilliant glow.
As I near that source of warmth,
my heart melts, unbounded joy fills me to brim.
I long to touch that flame so special.
I extend my hand to feel the warmth,
Suddenly I am enveloped in hug of fire.
I lay down the head, feel the warmth touch my soul.
The journey not wasted, I have found the place to lay my heart.
English is not the language I think in or speak in. My mother tongue is “Gujarati”,one of the many languages that is spoken in India. I have recently started writing in English,which I will usually not do. So I would welcome feedback/criticism/suggestions.
