The Fire King

THE FIRE KING

When the world began
In the maelstrom
The Fire King was born
Such heat
Such flame
Only a King 
Could tame
All within

The seas,
of molten rock
He pushed to the surface
It has begun
A world
In a land of magic
Beneath a new sun

In the fire
Lies passion
Love too
For a King,desire

When the world cooled
A king did not
Volcanoes erupt
A sign of a King
In full flow

For, fire
Has its' glow
Irresistible to all
Loved in many ways
Love, desire
Flames flickering
In full flow

You felt such warmth
Light too
Of a King
Whose fire flickered
Within
All he had
All he could bring
