Fire Bright, James’ Delight

Excited three year old

Mommy, it’s a dream

Hands out towards warm

Chases a glowing spark

Shock of bare skin landing

Cowers behind chair

Mommy, kisses fear away

Excited dance around fire

Time to leave, time for bed

Marshmallows, mommy

Next time, James, next time

Holds tight her hand

Bye, bye, Mr. Al

Mommy, it’s a dream
