From Sea and Foam ... Carpe Diem Haiku Kai inspires us with this quote:
But I'll add another quote:[...] "I am the flame and I am the dry bush, and one part of me consumes the other part". [...]
Pvt. Jack Bell:
Love. Where does it come from? Who lit this flame in us? No war can put it out, conquer it. I was a prisoner. You set me free. "The Thin Red Line"
ardent heartbeats
consume hatred leaving love
flaming sunrise
consume hatred leaving love
flaming sunrise
the flame of knowledge
burining in a young man's heart
a cawing crow
burining in a young man's heart
a cawing crow
innocence consumed
the flames of reality
on the soldiers tomb
the flames of reality
on the soldiers tomb
bells ringing
the flame of faith
the doves flutter skywards
the flame of faith
the doves flutter skywards
