Feel my warmth against your skin

A fire simmers from deep within

A heart, surrenders, to a touch

Lips against lips, in a silent hush

Two body’s crash in a single burn

Flesh upon flesh in a single turn

Feelings that can no longer hide

Release this yearning ache inside

Passionate cravings, fuel for the fire

Two become one in heated desire

From ashes, reborn,

Through pyre’s flame,

The Phoenix rises,

To victorious acclaim!

Sparks trickle down,

Like sands of time,

A fiery soul, to the skies,

He shall climb;

Until once again,

His nest, he does ready,

Though not yet ignited,

His task remains steady.

To return to his ashes,

Then restart again, new;

Find another reason,

Another land to pursue.

As wings clap together,

He creates his own fire;

The power of the Phoenix,

Soaring higher, and higher.

I burn with a fire
And quench your desire
All with the touch of my hands
No choice can you make
Your soul I will take
I’m more than you can withstand

As flames light the sky
Mischievous, sly
And fall to the earth from above
The land will ignite
With passion’s delight
As you feel my lust for your love

I will lead you astray
Then wash it away
With an iciness kept deep inside
From my clutch you can’t run
I have chosen the one
My hunger cannot be denied

Through the portals of time

The universe expands

Darkness dissipates

With light’s open hands

*

Fire below us, scorches the earth

Heavenly auras, the soul of rebirth

*

Fear not the door

That takes you this way

Enter with faith

In this cosmic array

*

Feel the energy, the pulse of the sun

You and the universe, together, as one

Shameful

Devastation

Destroying, without care

No concern for another’s life

Humans

 

Author’s note: A careless flick of a match, or cigarette, or a campfire left smoldering, can potentially burn hundreds of thousands of acres, diminishing natural habitats for wildlife.. *Scientists don’t have any good estimates on the number of animals that die in wildfires each year. But there are no documented cases of fires—even the really severe ones—wiping out entire populations or species (Thank God!).  Of course, some animals do die in the smoke and fire—those that can’t run fast enough or find shelter. Young and small animals are particularly at risk. And some of their strategies for escape might not work—a koala’s natural instinct to crawl up into a tree, for example, may leave it trapped. *Info via National Geographic
