Flames to Heaven all a DreamA Poem by Beth LindsayBeing completely engulfed by fire, real or just a dreamI watched in fear as the flames rolled in Rocks of flames crash into the ground Is this the price for some kind of sin? Is it just happened here or all around? I try to run from the storm The flames beat me everywhere The cool air turned extremely warm The world heated by the flair I watched in horror as people began to burn Screaming and cry for their lives It was only a matter of time before it was my turn Which is less painful, flames or knives? I cried out in fear as the flames engulfed me what I said was extremely surprising “Oh please God, save me!” I opened my eyes witness the flames vanish and the sun rising Is this heaven? or is this a dream? Everything didn't appear to be what it seemed. Neater and cleaning and purer in every way But the buildings and the houses all the same. © 2015 Beth LindsayAuthor's Note
