Orange and red, shades of fire
A natural flicker, an attractive flame
Strands of crimson mixing, dancing, fluttering in the wind
Swirling colors lost in a gentle breeze
Black ends, dark as night, cover the tips
The swirl of incredible colors
The sweet smell
I love her hair

To think that I almost let this jewel of a write pass by! Awesome and I am putting this into my library. Chris

I Love that you put this at the end. It was a bit of a surprise ending and very sweet. Thanks.
