Fire Poems | Examples of Fire Poetry

Then shall I say I could no other do? That fate beyond divine compelled my act? That like a bird on wires my mission flew? But that's a game of words, and not of fact. Full well I knew how best to calm my mind, From huddled suffering to avert my eyes; To on Olympus joy and music find; To drink ambrosia...

I watched every twig, every stick, carefully placed - I watched Every branch left its mark, playing its part like a symphony— melodies whispering notes of peace, while harmonies voice the dissonant echoes of war-- So subtle I watched Every limb dividing, thriving slowly depriving every ounce of oxygen from the air it never once tasted, but now hoards mouthfuls as its own. The period of starvation ends. It calls,...

A crown of fire. Worn by a liar. A crown of smoke. Worn by lovely folk. A crown of plastic. Worn by one fantastic. A crown of flowers. Worn by someone who towers. A crown of air. Worn by one so fair. Still, they will never know they're worthy. never see their crown....

“How my life has changed” “Reformation” I wrote a poem A long time ago. It was full of despair And gray cloudy skies. It made me cry. I then saw a child, Playing in a park, Laughing and full of joy. I wrote no more Of gray cloudy skies. “Reformation-2” I wrote a poem The other day, It was full of joy And sunny skies. It made me smile. I...

My heart is breaking as the fire wins, An elemental only doing What its nature demands: Eat, heat, repeat. Some spirits walk on As the fire fights Any efforts to defy its nature. We count, one by one, those escorted by fire To the edge of understanding: bitter taste of pain on one side, On the other, wholly unimaginable to us. Holy. And unimaginable. We are slow to...

Today I opened my cupboard, I found your letters, kept in a box, Which you gave me, The dried roses still smell like you, Like your...

Heal and transform my life Let our love catch fire~ Since it knows no ends, Holds no place for dispute~ Just a bright, sparkling start. Your love dispels all strife, So your love I admire. On it, my soul depends; In hearts it takes root, Its goodness sets it apart. Time to profit is rife, Your love and care inspire~ All known bounds they transcend, And all weathers...

We used to climb up the round metal fire escape at Columbus School This was Chariton Iowa, where no one saw or cared A summer morning was the perfect time to do this Before the sun heated the tube up, making it unbearable on our bare feet...

It's funny. The mind goes there and back, Switching between lyre to inspire - And the sober thoughts of black. If all I love is theory, And if all I know is fiction, Then why do eyes get teary, To the tune of my prediction? I could dream a thousand times, And play the songs that flow. If nothing else at least it rhymes, With...

It's too cold for angels to fly up here, It's too windy to raise a fire. Explosion? I don't know her. And she doesn't care who or what she destroyed. Life is just like a shard of frozen gold, Coveted most when it cracks and ends. Pardon me for being so bold, But in the end even beauty here stinks....

The day you left, a shadow fell, No word, no truth, just prison's hell. She claimed your life, a cruel decree, "Power of attorney," for all to see. While slumber held, she crept unseen, Your room a tomb, a plundered scene. A stolen key, a silent thief, My hidden goods, a bitter grief. "Thief!" you cried, a twisted blame, As she, the vulture, fueled...

When time's relentless hand begins to trace The lines of change upon a lover's face, And youthful fire, once so bright and bold, To embers soft, a story to unfold. Does love then falter, dwindle, and decay? Or find a deeper strength to light the way? Through weathered years where trials leave their stain, Does tenderness remain or fade in vain? The heart...
