Alone dying, the
heat, the light failing
embers, burning
together, gathering, sharing
building on the
heat, the passion, the belief, the faith
one to another, in
community, together
glowing, a beacon,
a message of love
sending forth,
reaching outward
seeds scattered,
stones thrown into a pond
ripples sent, cast
outward, to unknown shores
burning together
those who could not alone
in the seeds
scattered, in the joining with others
rising like a
phoenix, like life itself
stronger, brighter
together,
the embers,
burning within us
