Multiplying Their Fire

Building, growing
as each candle was lit
echoing off the glass
the brass of the cross
the gathering glow
the altar alive
with rich memory

Multiplying, increasing
their fire rising
more than these
the individual flames
the fire in us too
as our saints were raised
in loving memory
