My Fireplace

Flickering lights reflect on eyes,
Flames crackle and burn.
Luminous embers thrown vigorously around the room while,
The scorching heat roasts the helpless logs.
As the endless beauty of dark red flame raids my iris,
The radiant energy warms my chilly body.
Marshmallows melted at the campfire,
Keeping children energetic and exhilarated,
And here it is to this day, keeping me alive and well.
Fire.
