Reminiscence of Devotion

Reminiscence of Devotion

Reciting memories of love, you are burning;

I writhe and twist in your blaze.

But a warming ember you are

To others in the coldest of days.

To resuscitate life in you

They drew out my tears.

Like a hymn I sang this offering

For this hallowed communion of suffering.

Take this bitter-sweet chalice from me

The memory of devotion made muted

And transmute my oblate state

Into radiant love and life yielded
