Poem:
Prayers of fire rise softly,
crimson leaves drifting down
into the quiet water.

The air holds a faint warmth,
lingering where her hands move,
autumn resting on her shoulders.

Each falling leaf pauses the world,
a breath between light and stillness,
a moment kept in silence.

In the space between flame and water,
something gentle waits,
asking only to be seen.
