each one a vessel
a temple of their spirit
each one a bottle
as if made of blown glass
spun on the pole
into the fire
different shapes,
different colors
all of them alive
brightly burning
to be fed, to be nurtured
the fire within them
like lightning in a bottle
the spark of their selves
their living essence
giving to us to cherish
in our time, this place
this part of their journey
these moments of their lives
