Ardor
Elemental flame
dances with rhythm of life
wisps of heat wanting freedom.
An ember is born
visionary reads the signs
in vanishing dark tendrils.

Elemental flame
dances with rhythm of life
wisps of heat's wanton freedom.
Wisping as ghost smoke
visionary inhales signs
of the flames swirling spirit.
