Pyre

You are cunning
Spilling your orange
and yellow locks lavishly
At times you bob and
weave between the
wooden walls.
In your warmth lies
the attraction, a promise
of satisfaction and happiness.
Come closer little moth,
into the glowing embers
and let me mark your demise
by shooting a glistening
spark into the night sky.
