POEM: Fire In The Heart -By Isaiah Ogedegbe

I hear a cry,
A cry in the street corner;
A voice in anguish and agony
Wails and weeps:
Fire! Fire! Fire!
Someone please call the firefighter.
Fire! Fire! Fire!
My heart is on fire.

I am your firefighter.
I have come
Not with water but with love
To quench these flames in your heart.
I have come
To put a smile on your pale face
And to meet your needs:
Good food, clothing and shelter I freely give.

Fire! Fire! Fire!
The whole world is on fire.
You need someone to help you
And someone needs you too.
Thank you, my firefighter,
For offering help when I needed it the most.
Fire! Fire! Fire!
It is now out of my heart.
