Woman and lion stand true.

Roots of kindling stand before them.

Her hand rests upon his head.

His tail encircles her.

Her hand raises to the twisting coil.

Another hand rests on her heart.

The earth rises and bursts into the sky.

Fire falls to harvest life.

Passions flair! Woman becomes Love.

Lion becomes Courage. 

They infuse the fire with abiding spirit,

as the fire burns to quiet embers.

As the fire dies,

Strength rises.

Stand in truth, like the woman and lion.

Meet inevitable change.

Find your center.

Hopeful healing waits there.
