Fire

Note(when just discovered) It was a warmth that kept us sane, And without it we would complain, Your Beauty does always sooth, And now around it we could not move, But then a day of dark and gloom, And then a rainstorm went suddenly boom' But then the rain did start to pour, And then we cried oh please no more, And then calmly the pour did stop, But the baby lightly cried in its cot, So the fire went but said no goodbye And all we could do was sit there and cry, But then suddenly a bolt did strike, And came down with a bang witch gave a fright, Suddenly the wood did start to light, And then the fire came back with great height,

Richard, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT
