The Fire Burns Bright (an Ode to Kaolin) (Ode) by <~>
Raise your Voices!
Raise a Glass!
Nentwined! Nentwined!
Has risen to the Task!
As the New Year broke,
He fell to his knee
He offered a Jewel,
His Eyes said, "Please"
She doubted at first
That he was in earnest
But the Fire in his Heart
Burned bright, so she turned and
Reflected! Returned!
Refueled his Glow!
She sparkled and shone--
Her Eyes told him so:
His Bride she would be!
His Bride she would be!
And so, at Midnight
On the First of the Year
With a new Era breaking
Both shed a tear
Of Joy! Of Hope!
Of things that Would Be!
Their Hearts united
In loving decree
A Promise made,
A lifetime to Share
A future Together
A Love to hold dear
So, Raise your Voices!
Raise a Glass!
Nentwined and his Love
Their Hands will make fast!
