Reflections

Reflections of smoke
That provoke
Billowing shadows in front of the glass
Making it hard to pass 
Through the windows a view
So covered with frost and ice 
Making winter here precise 
Cold winds cry out loud
The whistling forms a shroud 
Around my domain
Where I am contained 
While I sit and escape the moment 
Watching the fire 
That I admire 
I am called to another place 
Where I embrace 
My book of dreams
Written out in streams 
Of ink
And blink to see 
What’s before me
