Campfires Poems - Poems about Campfires

Out where the cottonwoods lean on the breeze, and rivers carve songs through the sage, a lone rider hums to the hush of the trees, an echo of some other age. His boots wear the dust of a thousand trails, his hat wears the weight of the sun, but his heart still believes in wide-open tales, and dreams in the key of...

Dismal and miserable, the campers reflect Then, eyes fix upon the canoe tucked away, Still...

I’ve always loved a campfire…watching the colors mix and mingle within the flames…how, just like the moments in my life…no two campfires are the same. Perhaps the true beauty of a campfire is how it invites...

Angels of Night Lights David J Walker If they carried messages of hope I could understand But my father simply watches As my brothers sit at distant Campfires warming their transparent souls All at the expense of my restless dreams No one ever speaking although I can Hear them singing songs That I didn’t know they knew My mother never frowns...

Campfires I have been around them Burned sausages Smoke in my eyes My heart has been hot My back has been cold Friends; lost and found A vacancy sign; removed from my armpit I have looked into the flames I have put them out I tought about that today We sat in a circle, 2 meter apart Talked about our back ailments Almost like sitting around a campfire...

The campfire radiated warmth in the chilled night As excitement of the flames danced across dark tree trunks Wisps of silver grey smoke moved in rhythm matching every curve and dip Mesmerizing glowing orange embers ascend on nature's breath whispering kisses making the gentle breeze looked flushed All leaving one feeling intoxicated watching this warm breathtaking dance...

So sing the songs of campfires And sing them without fail— Sing them now among the pyres And sing them on the trail. Tell of things that used to be, Tell of those gone before— Make them stop now and just see, Our heritage and lore. And let them not forget us Or all the things we’ve done— We may brag and fight and cuss, But...
