Fire

Little flame, large fire
All consuming power
The most feared element
You destroy without thought

The master of volcanoes
And yet a comforting warmth
When you caress dry wood in a fireplace

The core of most planets
Keeper of our sun
thwarting your spears of fire into space,
For the pleasure of our earth.
Your energy is welcomed by plants
The feed of animals on earth
And for ourselves

You are the sun
The flame of hope
So mote it be.
