Prompt for Poets and Storytellers United is indifference/love
winter/spring
Remembrance
of the Fire
The spirits of
the misfits
drifts beneath passing clouds
hiding their light
where the air grew indifferent
forgetting they once burned like fire
Their sparks of passion
brushing the edge of dreams
releasing a faint fragrance
as a wisp of smoke rises
Slowly the sky pauses,
listens
a soft recognition
remembering the aroha*
that lived as a forgotten star
in the shadowed sky
The uncovered light
ignites the break of a bud
and winter departs
from the branches of the tree
It is the moment when truth,
unclothed and unafraid,
finally steps into the open,
warming the landscape
with the colours of shared flame.
*Aroha: love ( Maori ) ❤️
