Wildfire

My infinite skies

My eyes danced around the warmth of the wind

wrapped my fingers around of a lady

glowing across the oasis of chilling bones

the bonfire loves to hear wonderful stories

rejoicing over people’s laughter and serenity

Chilling cold outdoors were not welcome inside

The bonfire forced them out

Everyone gathered to watch

Flames of exotic dancing takes center stage

The bonfire gazes upon the person to tell the next story

We all watched and listen to the amazing adventures

When it came time for the next, the torched was past

Songs of love and warmth swept across

Celebration of family and friends gathered

Warmed and snuggled together

Our eyes filled with fire

Reflections of memories that stayed with you forever

Memories that cherished with everyone,

Mine was about tradition and passing my warmth

I may not be here to see it forever

Those times of infinite skies

I wished it never end.
