Mend my fire

There's work..
to keeping a fire.
Take out the ash..
Keep vents clean,
so you get
a good pull..
and airflow stream,
Otherwise its stops
burning..
and goes out..
relationships are
like that..
gauge your trickle,
give a good prod
and tickle with a rake.
A poke..and a skuttle..
dragging over the coals..
so the flame stays bright..
even old flames..
can re ignite..if you
pile on the fuel..and
Light .
