Whilst I rather enjoy a good poem or two, I've never been much for writing it (though I've always had a skeleton of ideas lingering around in my head). But I figured the time is right to give it a shot the way I did back in high school. Don't expect greatness, but expect nothing less than a sincere effort. Critique is welcome, and appreciated in advance. So off to the grit I'm here for... A poem that's been in the back of my head for a month or two. Running Title: Built by FireIt doesn’t take much to start a fire. Just take that kindling and strike your match; A little spark is it all it takes. Watch it, feed it; build it higher. The bigger it is, the warmer you’ll be. Keep some water or dirt at hand. It could get wild, so just remember: Never play with fire.
Thank you very much. It's bit of both. Relaying a point of advice on the basis of personal experiences. Naturally, one must read beyond the words to see the lesson and the experience.
