That Flame

The flame inside my heart

Keeps licking - flickering strong.

It fires my intentions,

Tells me to stay from wrong.



I can reach any heights

Soaring in open pleasure,

Planing over cares and strife

At my glorious leisure.



For the flames inside me

Burn so clear, so pure -

Urging me always forward.

Success is the lure



I can dream of golden times

And then I can pursue them -

For I know, if I persist

I will never rue them.
