You're rekindling a spark
That I had long thought dead,
The flames that flicker red
Like your hair, bright attest,
Still burn long in your breast.
Take a piece of that warmth
And with slow, careful steps,
Dip your hands into my chest
To place the guttering spark
In the worn hawthorn remnants
Of my slow beating heart.

Beautiful write Serenwise.

Compelling imagery in this emotive invite - - I love the calming effect of the metre you use to portray the thought of Rekindling - - good read Seren.
what better way to awaken and rejoice in the warmth of a new day...
Super words indeed my friend....
