Fire Tending

by Edward Ahern

There are rare individuals.
their hearth fire radiance
drawing me to their warmth,
thrown off without demands
for attention or favor.
I bask in the unmetered glow
of their unselfish self-focus,
rest in the calmness
of their illuminated inner unity.
I don’t envy their shimmer,
just help them gently radiate,
not advice or instruction,
but healing perspective.
