Look at the beauty of it's dance;
It's vibrant color flickers with passion
as it consumes everything it touches.
It dances blissfully across the floor,
and up the wall,
and onto the ceiling
until there is nothing left for it.
It produces the hottest of heats,
melting and scorching everything in reach.
It burns and it burns until everything is gone.
Everything is gone.
It's beautiful destruction.

Why does water never burn
ReplyDeleteThough made from quite explosive gasses?
A lesson that I quickly learned
Through heat and appropriate masses.
It is the most destructive force
That God in nature causes to rumble
When frozen water expands to ice
Pebbles shake and boulders crumble.
The fire, as you so aptly put
really can't at all compare
Fire's extinguished with but a spray
For fire to burn it does need air.
what you say is very true
ReplyDeletethey are impressive
but water and ice
of which you speak
are not as beautiful
as the fire in thine eyes
Ah, me thinks the fault is mine
ReplyDeleteAs I misread your written song
Science cripples many men
To miss a metaphor is wrong.
As for my eyes, they are blue
Which seem to say the likes of water
But flame of passion lies there as well
From hateful ire to fits of laughter.
Remember, do, this valuable lesson
And sing with songs accompanied by lyre
That water, blue in truth is made
Of elements that do make fire.

ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful :-)
ReplyDelete(Hi! I'm Juliet, I followed the link from Clayton's blog. :-))
Hi! I'm glad you like it. =)
ReplyDeleteDearest Hannen and Clayton,
ReplyDeleteI despise you for your talent! I wish I could sound cool! :-(
hmm...lemme try...
Bubbley bubbles,
How I love them so
I can make a single or doubles,
By just one blow
tee hee! that sounded terrable...
It was absolutely wonderful Amber! At least you can rhyme, that is something I cannot. All my poetry is what I guess you'd call free verse, no rhyme, no real meter, it's just kind of there.
ReplyDeleteHannen, I should show you how to write poems with meter and rhyme. It's pretty cool-ness.
ReplyDeleteOh, go over to Juliet's blog and read some of her poems. She has way cooler concepts than I do. :-D
Amber...Don't quit your day job.
Thank you Hannen! :-D
ReplyDeleteCurse you Clayton!...LOL
nah I use to write free verse poetry back in the day...steve's more of the poet in the family...
