Fire of life
Fire burns all that touch
Leaving scars to those who are foolish
It cooks our meat, our food
Giving nutrition to further life
It rages with fuel
And dwindles when smothered
Spreading with just a spark
Burning forests and killing life
It brings warmth and a sense of home
But if wronged it will take all it gives
It brings wonder, terror, life, and death
Do we control fire? Or does it control us?
