Fire breathes air; it destroys with each breath

Think of fire in a small forest glen

Fire introduces each tree to death

Death in itself makes life begin again

Fire turns lightheartedness to dismay

Fire impairs vision; fire is sight

Fire is foe on a warm summer’s day

Fire is your friend in the dark of night

Fire is gorgeous lit on a candle

Beautiful as it flickers in the wind

Fire is ugly, turns bright into dull

Belching smoke into a thick black whirlwind

Fire strikes rich or poor, husband or wife

Fire is everything; fire is life
