Untamed and wild

Untamed and wild

A Poem by Shelby Baker
"

About Fire

"

Untamed and wild.

 

I stare at it.

Watching it grow

Slowly making it’s way up the hallway

Flames eating up the wooden floors

Its growing more wild and untamed

By the minute the hallway turns into a fiery hell

Flashing of flames dance in the window frames

The song of hissing and popping sounds

As it eats its way through the house

The crowd comes and gathers to watch

as the fire  violently tears  its way through the house

EARLY in the morning the remains from the flames show in the morning light.

Making a grim reminder that fire has a mind of its on.

Untamed and wild.

I felt the bareness of the morning light ..looking upon the ashes of a once loved home and the remembrance of the untamed wild fire that swept across the halls of love.

This is really pretty. I love your imagry. It shows that all beautiful things bite back. They lure you in to attack. and that was not supposed to rhyme. lol.
