“Fire”
Red
Yellow
White
The colors flash
Flickering
The searing heat
Threatening to burn
Its movement mesmerizing
Golden tongues flicking
Unpredictable
As a poet’s mind
The grace
The beauty
Mesmerizing all
But hidden lies danger
Danger that can hurt
Injure
Kill
Fire
So life giving
Yet
So deadly
It ends
As it began
The glow softens
The flame bows
When once great
Its glory dies
The darkness approaches
Engulfing it whole
Leaving only glowing embers
And a wisp of smoke
To signal its reign
