Am I The Spark

Can the spark left in the fire

Burst once more into flames?

Can a love once recalled

Ever fade from my mind again?

 

Can a leaf now fallen

From its tree of life;

Be united again to the branch

From which it departed?

 

A water fall goes in one direction,

Is not  a disputable fact.

Death is an undertaking

Befalling of all alive.

 

Smile, for the day is shorter,

And your happiness will be prolonged.

This is a fact to ponder,

When you open the door to life.

"Can the spark left in the fire
Burst once more into flames?" Aye even at your age...
For the spark of love and passion remains forever in our soul...

"Can a love once recalled
Ever fade from my mind again?" No... for once you have held
this precious love in your heart and mind she remains evermore there...

"Can a leaf now fallen
From it's tree of life:
Be united again to the branch"... Aye it can.. perhaps not in
physically but forevermore in spirit :) for where we came from
we will always be bonded...

For the rest... aye undertakings are a journey...
smiles brings us happiness...

Thank you for the smiles and thinking you bring us...

Love and Light
Lily
