Ode to a Hearth

Early in the 

still dark morning

life it calls for 

some small fire

first the candle 

then the stove

our conversation 

well inspires

Agreements and 

decisions burning

tilt the damper 

stem the flow

Cracks and pops 

mirages turn

the spells we murmur 

cast a glow

Words grow heated 

as we forge 

a truce to carry 

on the flame

Light the darkness 

warm the home

as life and light are 

much the same ~
