The Fire Tree

Born within the ashes
Of a firey Phoenix
The fire tree
Flickering flames float upwards
Hermaphroditic in nature
It's feminine flame flowers
Only it's roots are male
It's fruit
As hot as chilli's
The only life that prospers
Are fire flies
Their glowing luminescence
Sit like stars in the night sky
Burning cinders
Hover, and waver in the wind
Like elfin torches
