Sparks

Shall I define a spark?

 

A small fire that might seem miniscule but could burn an ark

 

It’s a bit extreme but to what degree?

 

Fires don’t begin at once, there’s a step overlooked since it happens quickly

 

The thing about a spark that most miss but some observe

 

Is that a single spark to start something big  is a rare occasion, it takes a few sparks for something to occur

 

After a few here or there a fire is almost a sure thing

 

The fire that is ignited becomes even more interesting

 

Once again, what most will miss are the sparks that still fly

 

The fire might dance but it’s the sparks that truly touch the sky

 

The fire will slowly begin to wither yet the sparks stay strong

 

Even when the fire is extinguished, the spark is the last to say goodbye

 

Yet even under the ashes of the no longer flame, the spark is always ready again to become alive
