The Fire Within (poem)

~ bardofupton

Another old poem:

The forest is burning
Fire on water
Flame on ice
Cold heat
Wet flame
The forest is burning
The birds are in flight
Fear and freedom
And severed ties
The forest is burning
And nothing is changing
And everything burns
In the reflected fire
The fire within
That echoes the fire without.
