stoked with ideas

stoked with ideas

ancient truths

new facts, figures

with bold colors

a spark of imagination

fuel for the fire

a blaze to be kindled

all of our lives

a vessel open

a spirit willing

flames overflowing

as pouring down from heaven

a light growing

deep within springing

consuming our flesh

our lives ablaze

quote in the 2/3/2014 COUGAR NEWS

“The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.”

by Plutarch
