The Campfire

Orange flames dance an flicker around
Sending hot embers to the ground
Enticing music an people do abound
For the campfire has been found

Under the nights speckled sky
People an swags they do lie
Unleashing tension with a sigh
Absorbing the brilliance of nature's high

There is a freshness in the air
But the warmth of the fire does take care
Crackling timbers it does bare
Plumes of smoke billowing everywhere

Drifting off to meet the star
Dissolving in night before it gets too far
Sound of nostrils flaring from afar
The night is perfect there is no marr

Joyous sounds of music shared
Uniting people who have cared
To make the journey an have bared
The campfire the flames have flared

If when the city runs you down
Head to the bush where some have found
The campfire an the illuminous starbound
Brings meaning to life an keeps you aground
