Sitting By the Fireside

Burning embers in the night Smoke is rising slow Encasing me in warm delight Creating mental glow I close my eyes and listen to The evenings soothing sounds Like crickets chirps, the tree frogs peeps And distant barking hounds I languish in the darkness Like the moon and stars above I'm now at rest and I attest That this is what I love There's nothing so embracing As a peaceful night alone Sitting by the fireside Behind my happy home Rockman :-)
