Loves Flame

     By Christopher Bowman

The witching hour has past
...To go blindly where the heart leads unbidden,
choices that your mind does so protest,
but unresistable is loves need defined
that consequences price is paid
with wiliness of risk taken,
for so needed is the moths nature resolved,
the flame danger is openly sought
knowing instinctively the desperate flight
toward a silver moon
is of such value
no risk is to great
for loves final reward fulfilled....
