It was black and thick
The wisp of smoke came up from the fire
The flames rose and the snow came down
I watched the house burn down
Then as I walked away there was a voice
It came form the flames
I looked and a small body came out
Tears cme to my eyes
For there covered in ash was my sister

my word was wisp

Please check the rules for this contest and make the appropriate changes...your word must be used in the title. Thanks!
As for this I certainly hope it is not based on a true story. Thank you for the entry
