Born in Flame

Born in the flame and conceived in the earth.
Some use me with shame and others with mirth.
Once I’ve been tamed I hardly miss, and all men fear my deadly cold kiss.
They cloak themselves in shells and chains, they try to fend off the inevitable pain.
I am gifted to both soldiers and kings. My beauty can rival an angels wings.
But do not forget the homely hearth for it was probably my first place of birth.
