Flames
October 14, 2021
People say “ashes to dust”,
And think that is the end,
But from dust there is a spark.
From sparks are embers,
From embers are flames.
Flames need air,
We need air.
We are forever waiting to be put out,
But when the fire dies,
Another spark flies.
The dust makes us stronger.
