A campfire is a great way to defeat the nip in the air on a cold night. The mesmerizing display of a campfire can lead to dream, and its warmth can help us feel a quiet sense of community with all those siting next to the flames.
The heat of a campfire reaches deep into our bones and soon we all become radiant little campfires of our own whose embers we can take back into our beds to keep us warm throughout the night.
Our internal fires are what binds us together, that lead to not only passion, but compassion and feelings of deep intimate connection.
Holding your hand I’m sure of my future
For moments like these give life its foundation
Something is blossoming deep in my heart that fulfills

The Campfire 2/16/08
Come sit with me next to the crackling fire
The wind from its core has such hypnotic power
Into the night the sparks dart and do dance
The heat of the blaze draws me into a deep trance
Silence comes easy when comfort is all that you’re feeling
Something is blossoming deep in my heart that fulfills
Calm and refreshed the heat now radiates from me
I’m now a fire which will glow through the night
Breathing in deep the air is like honey
Smooth and so sweet with a hint of smoked pine
Walking away we’re absorbed by the black of night
Soon stars appear as our eyes adjust to this new light
Our ears come alive as we feel our way back to our campsite
Each rustle of leaves is both a warning and a guide
Holding your hand I’m sure of my future
For moments like these give life its foundation
Loving is something akin to the fire we’re building
Once warmed by the blaze we soon become our own fire and brimstone
Silence comes easy when comfort is all that you’re feeling
Something is blossoming deep in my heart that fulfills
