and post notes and photos about your poem like Emile Pinet.
Rising from the fire like a phoenix;
hot cinders morph into crimson darts.
And shadows mark the fringes of light,
extinguishing all unwary sparks.
Scarlet splashes in the molten flames
as cerise and chartreuse ride the waves.
And all eyes follow their rhythmic flow;
for their hypnotic beauty enslaves.
Bursts of laughter and bravado bond
in telling tall tales that haunt the night.
And comradery clamors to be heard
amongst the campers huddled up tight.
Tranquility's intoxicating,
saturating your soul with its peace.
And it feels like genuine magic;
when worries and anxieties cease.
A brotherhood fuels the campfire,
united by its flickering flames.
And old friendships get rekindled,
free from frustration and macho games.
