In the beginning, the solar furnace

birthing the planetary core,

 dragon gold from fire,

elixir of gods, purest of substances

the ultimate holy grail

with its own biophotonic substance

it’s incomparable worth;

Under our feet it simmers and seethes

 - sometimes, to cataclysmicly erupt

building new mountains, islands, atolls,

or falling from the skies in stormy strikes,

ravaging forests and savannas

by chance, season - or human folly.

 

A burning heart for the living Earth

from which geo-thermal heat

all creatures derive

their own temperature, pulse

and passion;

warming  the rocks above galactic permafrost

for things to grow in the temperate soil

enabling life-forms to evolve

within that climatic window.

 

The parent star dancing on its track

radiates living light upon its family in tow

while in the ethers,

fey spirits embody that element

 for fireside and  story-time;

and mayhap, those other, rarer realms

hypothetical - or not!

 

And then!

serving and stoking the beating heart

with the flames of longing and love;

the rapturous powers of spirit

 - adoration, devotion, courage

and compassion.

The source for all that touches the soul

melts the mechanical mind

propelling and motivating inspired action

and manifesting goals or dreams.
