  1. A Note:
    I hope this is where we're supposed to write our poems because if it's not then I'll look weird. Oh well. Here, have a poem.

    Toasty in front
    Freezing behind
    Leaves burn-crackle
    And the black limbs of pines
    Frame all the stars
    Like diamonds cloud-cloaked
    Flashlight beams golden
    Through a trail of smoke
    A log cracks and falls
    And everyone starts!
    Because everyone believes
    Ghost stories in the dark
    Coals glow red
    Like eyes in the night
    And the campfire burns
    As the stars shine bright

  2. Whenever it gets cold outdoors
    I love to make a fire and roast my s'mores
    Potatoes and Hot dogs, burgers, and ham
    and I get my friends over whenever I can.

    We sit there all together looking at the burning wood
    and we sing songs with peeps from the neighborhood
    We sit at the fire, with hot chocolate milk
    While wrapped in blankets made out of silk

    I put wood on the fire, just to watch it burn
    while the guys for more fire yearn
    We sing songs late into the night
    All this, because it is cold outside

  3. A fire once bright 'gainst the black of the night
    Crackling and popping and spreading its light
    Too long abandoned with nothing to burn
    A campfire forsaken, a new lesson learned
