What Does it Take to Make Love Burn?

A chapter in the book Pappa's Memories and Ramblings

A Love's Fire

by QC Poet


We are taught it takes three elements to start a fire burning,
Heat, Oxygen, and Fuel,
But does this also affect a Human's Love or its yearning?
Heat, Oxygen, and Fuel?

When two people meet this spark may become a flame,
Fueled by the oxygen and effort used to play Love's game!
With only two of the three, Love too may grow colder,
Burning while its sparked oxygenated effort and fuel turn to a smolder!

Like the dying fiery embers that nobody remembers,
The fire of one's passion can only last as long as it's fueled!
Adding more Heat, Oxygen, and Fuel takes work like staying warm on coldest of December's! 
With drastic changes in these 3 elements of a couple you'll find they have dueled? 

Arguments eat away at loves Heat and desire,
So don't smother each other's love Oxygen!
There are many ways to add Fuel to a smoldering fire,
Remember each of these three elements can be replenished so Love's Fire can burn again!

Notes;
This is not one of my dual meaning poems.
Love's Fire obviously has more factors to it's sparking, burning, and endurance.
This is a Fire contest inspiration.
Like my photo representation included it has It's Fiery Light and Dark sky's.
