Embers and Snowflakes

Snowflakes swirl outside the window
As the fire burns embers, keeping me warm
Glowing inside a winter globe of white
Cold wind moves the air into night
As winter whistles songs
You are my fire, burning within
Inspiring my words to flow, alive again
Moving fresh, falling lightly onto pages
As the snow sifts from the sky onto ground
To sparkle in the sun, when I am found

I like the imagery of embers inside contrasting the snow outside...and the inspiration to write.
