fires burn
carnelian and amber
winds lick
swirling vortices
char black
naked skeletons
eagerly embrace
conflagration
for after every pyre
falls
silent
ash

thanks so much for entering the contest, i really appreciate it...

i like the first stanza very much and the final- i am not sure the middle stanza works- a simpler phrase there
could have lent a more poetic voice to the piece-
but that said i think you did a fine job with this piece and im glad to see you in this contest
