The night was cool,fall is here
I stared at the fire becoming mesmerized
The flames grew higher stopping my chill.
As I gazed at the fire the night grew still,
It's calming effect still makes me surprised.
It was so soothing that I felt embraced,
The crackle and groan and the sparks they flew,
Making colors of red, gold and blue,
I sat there watching, holding the hand of my dearest friend,
My husband and I had no reason to speak, no words need be said,
We sat and shared a magic moment, till the fire went out.
Today was my best day, of this I have no doubt!

I too love a fire, I use my fireplace almost every day during the cold months. I loved your poem and enjoyed knowing how contented you were feeling.......may you always feel this way my friend.......:-) Hugs
ReplyDeleteThanks Bernie, you know it was the first time all summer we used it. I really enjoyed it just gazing into it. I just have a little electic fireplace but I do like the ambiance. I
ReplyDeletehope you had a nice day today. You are always in my thoughts. Take care,c

ReplyDeleteHugs,
Monicax.
Thanks Monica, it was fun, first time all summer or should I now say fall. Hugs
ReplyDeleteYour words are so very dear. Nice one, Cinner. I'm liking the change to fall here... pretty!
ReplyDeleteI was just saying last time we all sat around the fire...I believe the need to stare for hours at a fire must be genetically encoded in humans. We all do it, and we all feel the calm of it. It's very soothing I think.
You changed your colors and photos again! Great poem. I can picture you and your husband in front of the fire holding hands.

C-Woman, you are giving me all the tastes of autumn I need, which are absent here so far ... the poem is tender & inviting ... and the photo! oh, how I wish we ever needed a fire here! thanks for sharing that.
ReplyDeleteYour new blog layout is luscious. Hey, that reminds me - when I'm visiting you, am I supposed to be hearing a bird sound? Like a bird tweeting? cuz I do ...
That is lovely Cinner. And I love the new bog look... oh Autumn, how I love thee. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara, I love the colors the best. have a great day.
ReplyDeleteToni, no bird sounds if you stay long enough you will hear my playlist....yes there is a bird! you make me laugh, The second song is beautiful. Have a great day. I am glad you are well.
Margie, thanks it means alot coming from you. your poems are always so beautiful. Have a great day.
TechnoBabe, I changed them again, Do you think I am addicted? No I thought I would go with a fall theme. There was supposed to be leaves falling down...but nothing I did worked.. Take care my friend.
Thanks Holly, I like the change too, I know nothing more soothing. I am glad we took the time at the end of the day. Big Hug.

Cinner...you've chaned your blog again!! Beautiful poem!! Loved it allot, there is nothing I enjoy more but to gaze into a nice warm fire. As a child that is how we heated our home...there is nothing like wood heat to take the chill out of the air. I miss it allot. I'm so happy you found your sweet dog Cinner, I was very concerned for you when you posted that he had wondered off...but all is good in your world now :) Excellent Happy Days!!
