Fire Up

One flint you are lit.

Candles flickering bit by bit.

A warmth given on the coldest night.

An oven used for heat is a poverty fright.

Wood in a fireplace is a cold man’s dream.

An alarm to watch over it protects a young child’s scream.

A leader that could guide us through the darkest night.

A street light bulb in Paris, upright.

A cook's way to make a delicious meal.

Shows us that fire is power and oh so real.
