Fire

dumb creatures - 2 sticks rubbed together/or a flint and striker

the first spark of it comes gleaming into the world

in many old cultures it was tended by the women, kept going, banked from day to day

warm blessings to those who use and handle it well

destruction to those who let it get out of hand
