Ever Rising Then Gone Away
Ever rising then gone away,

I’ll make you cry, but flavor meat,
But If I’m heavy, use your feet.
What am I?
Smoke. It rises then slowly dissipates in the air. Smoke signals send messages and incense is used in religious ceremonies. Anyone who’s sat at a bonfire knows smoke in your eyes can make you cry when the wind changes direction. Smoked meats are a tasty treat, but if you see heavy smoke (i.e. from a fire) then run. Or stop drop and roll if the fire already caught you.
