Fire Contest Poem

For every person, there can be a desire
It is to touch and hold that beautiful fire.
Rageful though it can be, it can be tamed,
Even then, for destruction, it might be blamed.
It is really our fault for the destruction it caused,
And the huge fires can not (shortly) be paused.
Some people think there are deities of fire,
And some people use it to burn dead people's pires.
When fire runs wild, it can never be good, 
I would run away like sensible people would. (Lol!)
Sometimes I think fire is Satan's bite,
But other times it can bring comforting light.
How can one thing have such opposite sides?
It is beautiful but it is responsible for many that died!



Sorry it is kinda dark!!!!!!!
