Burn with me

said the pale yellow spark

as it fell to the ground.

 

Burn with us

said the pale orange leaves

and dead pale flowers

left behind by Summer.

 

Together in the flames

they live again

in

a

blaze of gold and yellow and red

 

 

DAILY PROMPT

Flames

I want to make you pretty

I want you to look divine

I want to help you get ready

for your danse with death tonight

 

It’s my job to comb your hair

to trim you beard

to straighten your tie

For your  danse with death tonight

 

When you’re ready

I’ll take you there

I’ll help you down with care

Into the dark where the music is silence

and you can danse with death all night.

 

 

 

DAILY PROMPT
