An Ode To Blood

Coursing through our veins Sometimes as cold as ice And sometimes fiery hot But always radiating life. Red as a poppy in a field Or lava exploding from a volcano within. Bitter as iron But sweet as honey too. As it flows, so does life too And when it flows no more, so does life cease too.
