Wispers in the Flames
A soft sound wispers in my ear,
as I wander through the mist & smoke.
The air is hot and sultry,
but I trust in my protections.
I am the first to respond, first to hearken
to the call of the raging inferno.
I fight the battles in heat and flame,
searching for those who are in need.
Bringing them safety, cradled in my arms.
No obstacle will I not conquer,
to appear at their side,
my silouete against the dancing light.
I am a sight for sore eyes,
whose pleas are swallowed in the roaring blaze.
I alone hear them, the wispers in the flames.
I, am a Fire Fighter.
