    Fury of Abuse

     Ignited, diffuse
    Flames rise in the child
    The fire burns, soars
    As heat sears the heart
    Ashes fly, sprinkled with light
    Crimson falls
    An amber glow transcends emotions
    Silently, tears come to cool - to calm
    Drop by drop
    Drowning the blaze
    Cleansing the soul
    As the fire dies, smoke dances
    Obscured through the mist
    Crimson flickers
    Beneath the cloud, cinders crackle
    Feeling's seethe
    Burning rekindles, in the depths of the spirit
    It leaves the heart raw, its form branded
    What remains in the soul smolders
    Lingers
    Seducing an innocent child's heart
    To endure the shame

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
