Always in the shade of trees
Never direct sun

As it wafts from wood through fire
Like thought’s energy

An accidental
Adventure into the past
Sunny river day

Fireside memory
Blue turns to black then to gray
Then it turns to ash

Balanced o’er the flame
Until embers took a piece
Of heart and soul

The sun on the trees
The chill in the air
The warmth of the fire
The jays calling
The mountain air crisp
With promise of
A new day
And hot springs
Relaxation

Fire renews the soul
Warmth and light yet consuming
Forms shift like spirit

For the poker stick

Like flaming prayer
Guide wood reached out for heaven
Ember memories
