Fire
Leaves now crimson red
Faded yellow and brown
In the darkness coals
Flicker like jewels on a crown
Sipping wine and cuddled up
I settle in for sleep
Dogs dozing cats as well
Birds nodding without a peep
Candle flicks to and fro
Drafty house propels its own
Bewitching shadows dancing
Ceremoniously on the wall
I fear conjured beasts
No sleep at all
