Sweet Spirit Poem by Bella Ravenstar

Once I felt a burning fire
Buring bright within my soul
Its warmth gave peace
It fed my starving soul
My aching heart felt healing vibrations
My weary mind given rest
Cares and woes whisked away
Sweet peace the fire gave
Balming the broken soul
The still small voice gave wisdom
Whispering guidance to my soul
The voids filled
The lonliness fled
Love beyond description
More than man can give
Flowed in abundance
Throught my soul
Joy beyond all earthly pleasures
Filling my mind
Rejoice I did
Tears fell
Wonder, awe I thought
My heart doth swell
Oh the fore hath consumed my soul!
Time passed the flame faded
Emptiness came about
My heat ached
Because it fled
Worried, woes came
Lonliness returned
Sorrow filled my broken soul
Fear came to mind
I mourned he fire's parting
Distant it was
No calm wise whispers to hear
Lost I felt
Weak and weary
It is dreary
I wait but no return
Time passed
Darkness fell
I needed strength
Too weak I was
Where was that sweet mercy sound?
The one that soothes my soul?
The one that feedeth me?
I long for the fire again!
That sweet gift, I long it so!
I plea for it again!
I am weary
Please comfort me..
Hear my plea, oh sweet divine, let me feel that loving fire
It penetrates the body to the soul
Then so sweetly...
So suddenly...
The warmth filled my soul
I fell on my knees
The fire returned again
That sweet small voice whispered
To me again
Once more the fire burned
A gift divine from on high
And I felt whole again....
