Truly the glow of an evening fire does "penetrate" into the weary soul leaving a warm shadow of serenity Harry. What a wonderful image of warmth and serenity. So nicely written. I really like this one! During the winter months we have a fire in the evenings in our gas fireplace. So cozy! Sending you glowing blessings of warmth and peace! Congratulations!
