Embers glow red & orange
Inside a hearth of grey stone.
My eyes glitter in the darkness
As the flames crackle.
Warmth Surrounds me.

Sparks dance and begin to
Encircle me with dazzling
Firelight. I am hypnotized
By the shadows that are
Forming on my wall,
Flickering and morphing
Into strange shapes.

The comforting heat shields
Me from the bitter cold.
I Watch the blazing logs as the
Fierce flames engulf each stick
And twig within the fireplace.
Visions of the fiery colors are
Reflected on my glassy eyes.
FIRE!
