Blue clashes with red
Wrapped in the earth; it singed the blue sky,
Sparks fly apart, only to disappear seconds later
Bends to the winds – yet at first chance, will straighten –
Fire.
Strongest where the flames bond,
Gaining power through what is given
Its enemies merely crumbled to ashes –
Yet it will only survive if the heat is strong –
Fire.
Yet it will only be beautiful –
Have the power to inspire, to give others heat –
Will only be mesmerizing, crystal, glowing –
If it is tended to, yet given room to breathe.
