Orchid In The Ash

Orchid In The Ash

Raging forest fire 

In the heart 

Of those that burn

Natural combust

That will smolder

As it churns

To wither in it's heat

Be branded by the flame

Etching an impression

Forever a stain

It leaves behind a char

A darkened emblem

From the tinder

Until stirring up the sparks 

Wakes the air alight with embers

Pyro watch it burn

Watch it smoking to the ground

And in time it will arise

An orchid in the ash
