Fire...

The infernos of hell.
And the light that brings hope.
Fire...

The creator of heat.
The fuel of passion.
The disaster that kills.
Fire...

Mother Nature's gift
and humanity's curse...
Fire...

Whether be the flames that
engulf a loved ones home...
Forever claiming their soul.
Or the flames that we surround
on a blistering frigid night
that seemingly saves our lives...
Fire...

Such a powerful and irrefuttable element
Whose presence shall we praise and edify?
Or whose shadows shall we cower in?
Fire...

Its mere intricacy emitting a
venerational beauty on its own.
Fire...
