Fire

My challenge

Fire

Capable of epic proportions,
I am powerful,
I am the mystic,
Elegant in dance,
All things romanced,
I am bleak!

Formidable in my touch,
I caress, distress,
All things in my wake,
I leave only remants in my display,
Dissaray and ash,
Do not forsake!
I am thy ally,
I am warmth,
Eater of cold nights,
I do not spite,Β 
I smite if angered,
Left in disrespect,
I will ravage the land and torch the skies,
Do not neglect!
I am an explosive enigma,
I'll rip through bough and mire,
I am the allure of men,
The giver and taker of life,
I am fire!

You packed a whole lot of emotion into one poem. The end was my favorite part. With all the devastation that fire can bring, it also represents life.Β  It's survival and it's also devastating at the same time. The language is brilliant.

Favorite lines:Β 

Elegant in dance,
All things romanced,
