Always Aflame
The fire of our dreams
Fed by the fire in our lives
Fueled by the fire of our dreams
Alive in the fire of our lives
Shaped by the fire of our dreams
Resolved by the fire in our lives.
My poem is inspired by This Poem Is Shaped By Google,
a poem written by Jenna (revivedwriter) and inspired by Google search results.
(in response to MTB – Lists that Google gives us)
So, in a way, this poem is remotely inspired by a Google search
(and completed free of nightmares).

So true, fire is there, everywhere …. love the ‘nightmares’ reference in notes.

Thank you, Helen. 🙂
“Nightmares” was key in the original poem. I just couldn’t work the word into mine, but the “fire of our dreams” could be both life passion and regret.

Literal fire and fiery passion. I was just listening to an episode of Hidden Brain, which was about rage, and how and why our brains allow us to “snap” like that. I guess that’s another type of fire.

Stand back! Those neurons are always firing. 😉
And then we have a president who says, “LIBERATE MICHIGAN” with plenty of people out there just waiting to snap at any moment.

You know I love repetition…and fire feeds fire. Will it create or destroy? (K)

Both, but hopefully more positive.

The repetition here, together with the photo, reminds me of the flame flickering….and that’s the dreams and the life…flickering, flaming, calming down a bit, bursting up again. Fire needs oxygen!
Enjoyed this one!
