Keep the Flame Burning

A poem and a song

By Rasma RaistersPublished 2 months ago • 1 min read

Keep the flame burning,

let the flickering fire,

keep hope alive,

keep it burning -

deep within your heart.

There are dreams still to be realized

and adventures to be sought,

flights of fancy,

to the clouds above that fly,

with silver-white linings -

keeping hopes alive.

Keep the flame burning,

don’t let it ever go out,

even as the cruel winds blow,

look toward to a new tomorrow,

leave yesterday behind,

as all the tears dry,

remember that you can say -

love is mine.

Keep the flame burning,

keep on yearning,

you can make a new tomorrow -

from the dreams of yesteryear.

Keep those memories shining,

ever bright as time goes on,

keep the flame burning,

on the love that you share.

Remember that together,

the road is ever smoother,

let it keep on flickering,

sending a message of hope and love,

far and wide.

Never let the wick smolder and burn out,

make it an eternal one,

always you’ll be smiling,

beneath the sun

and rainbows will arch above you -

all the days of your life.
