The wood burns, the ashes remains.
It's dark and rust,
it exists but is useless.
Why do you want to be useless?
I am the wood, I answered.
Ashes are what will become of me.
For all I care today and right now is
I will be the warmth when your day is cold.
I will give life to what is about to die.
It's okay, I will burn
and turn to ashes. I will be grey,
But I shall ignite the fire in you.
I will give life to a soul that is dead.
I will melt the snow to bring that spring day again.

Inspired by the healthcare workers doing their best to save us from this pandemic.
I hope everyone is safe and protected. Please stay home and please take care of yourself.
