A grove of embers,
Destroying conifers dreams:
Searing foliage....

I’m spooky off-season;
October ignites a wildfire,
now free....

A dance of wildfire
fireflies dots of tiny stars
sticking to the night.

Set the forest aflame,
As I realize how’re no longer the same.
Set my sight on escaping,
As I run from wildfire ever burning....

Comes the fall of an empire, Terror spreads like wildfire, Miss Liberty blushes, No Moses in the rushes, Silence is the hymn from the choir....

Cold as an iceberg
For the whole life deceivings 
Was the tender heart
Until an overwhelming
Wildfire melted the ice floe

Comes the fall of the empire
Panic spreads  spreads like wildfire
Liberty blushes  
No Moses in the rushes
Silence is the hymn of the choir...

ASH

you poke and stare
a wildfire glare
in melting shrieks
I turn and burn
away till    all
that’s left
is ash

Twisted words
Far from the truth
Spreading like wildfire
Quiet, non replying
Enemy in disguise
Truth shall stand
All other words revised
Judged in the Promise Land....

Lady,

In me you did inspire
This poem like wildfire--
For your beauty is so deep
You make me feel small and meek--
From me my heart you did rend 
Because from heaven you did descend...

Tempestuous wildfire is raging; leaves behind charred forests. 
Humans are careless beasts; camp fires and cigarettes destroy all life.
Easily avoided with caution; forests could be saved.

Slick word trick time - bomb ticks...ticks...
Salt fire disssss solves pace.

Wildfire fear spreads hate
Smear silver salve to calm burns
Balm soothes skinned heart......

baby bear comes back
                 playing around in the trees
               scratched bark and bear hugs

Contemplating eventide
Requested a longed desire
Resting in heart chamber side
Provoking aloud suspire
Burning as a wroth wildfire

beat me back
I'm a 
wildfire
out of control
burning down the hillside
underground in into the trees
where I don't belong
I might be natures way
but I'm 
destructive
I'll turn you black
I'll turn you into cinder sand that blows
into dust....

Fire
warm, cozy
glowing, flickering, crackling
fireplace, bonfire, lightning, wildfire
raging, engulfing, destroying
red, hot
ashes

A blue-eyed moon peeks from under
smoky clouds to spy the wonder
of fireflies.

As shallow ponds reflect each spark,
a lone wolf’s eyes shine in the dark
from firebush.

Blazing wings rise from wintry sleep
a stunning summer scene in leaps 
of wildfire....
