Ignite

Flame and ash light the sky.
My little heart leaps so high.
  Fire is beautiful most powerful of all.
Only the wisest can control her and not fall.
    Flame and ash fill the sky.
A happy tear fills my eye.
    This wonderful power would obey.
Following my order without a single sway.
     Trustable unlike any human alive.
For me, I try and fight to help myself strive.
    Only with fire to light my life.
That and my trusty pocket knife.
