A Warning A delicate dance of red and blue, A spark, a flicker, a flame, The heated lick of a yellow hue, This blaze no man can tame. As tempting as the warmth may be, And welcoming its light, One should be cautious if he should see A burning flicker of white. Though we can never deny the beauty Of this symbol of desire, It still remains my fervent duty To warn you of this thing called fire.

A Warning
A Warning A delicate dance of red and blue, A spark, a flicker, a flame, The heated lick of a yellow hue, This blaze no man can tame. As tempting as the warmth may be, And welcoming its light, One should be cautious if he should see A burning flicker of white. Though we can never deny the beauty Of this symbol of desire, It still remains my fervent duty To warn you of this thing called fire.
