Rafe Chanteloup - Sea Flame

Sparks of silvery
Blue flames alight
In darkness consuming
Rejuvenating, like night.

Your source of power
Fascinates my soul
While made of earth and air
I cannot fathom your control.

You create light and heat
In a cold, lightless void
The world you entrance
Can never be destroyed.

Always, I'm reminded
As I watch you dance
Of simple God-like wonders;
The most basic true romance.
