Water and Fire

Such a disaster once had happened. Water and fire had fallen in love Master to hug the fire was maddened, Was so much afraid to hug his love. Strong arms of fire enchanted, gleamed, All around him has brightened. Pull over to her love water dreamed But the flames of fire frightened. Prideful and beautiful was the fire With each coming day his love blazed To hug water was his greatest desire But …to do it he was so much afraid. The same often happens in life. They love, but are afraid to show. With the real feelings they strive, Different ways they forever go. Can’t live together water and fire. One another they only admire. ©Larisa Rzhepishevska (Odessa, Ukraine) The 28th of April, 2013

What a beautiful oxymoron if water and fire actual could hug without killing each other.
