Friday Fling #236 for June14th 2013

 

Recent wildfires in California and Colorado brought to mind the many definitions of the word “fire.”

Besides the one involving flame, there is losing one’s job, getting excited (“all fired up”), and shooting.


This week our theme is any one or more of the definitions and uses of the word “fire.”


As an additional challenge, we are recommending you try to write your fire-related poem in one or more four line stanzas with the unusual ABba rhyme.

Such as:


Before the fireplace blazing bright

two lovers lit each other’s fire

Inhibition was fired as sire

so both sparkplugs could fire that night.
