You cannot put a Fire out—
A Fire out—of Fire!
In yellow tunic, laughter fits
A failing honest mark to rise!

For Reach—I could have fanned
That younger child—
Mother, take a creature sweet
And turn again—behold

What tamed—what clearly lives,
He touches high—
These creatures do partake
As Sons and Daughters shine!
You cannot put a Fire out
