Water And Fire

She was filled with amazing features,
Made from small miniscule creatures,
Ever so blue and clear,
A life without fear

He was burning bright,
So full of light,
He ate all that was on his track,
Leaving everything black,

She flowed down stream,
When she saw his beam,
She smoothly slowed and stared,
From that moment on she loved and cared,

He was keeping himself warm,
When he saw her blue form,
He opened his eyes wide,
And on the spot his anger died,

Water and fire,
Their love was brighter,
But though it bloomed,
Their love was doomed.
