Notes About The Poem

The Dancing Firelight

The flickering, dreamy firelight, does a sultry dance,
Upon the walls of cozy evening, at autumn's arrival.
The fading sun left its memory, the crackling flames;
And bluebird sings sunshine in lush, scented tropics.
The shadows are in rhythm, with the whirling snow,
On the edge of chill November, flying by my window.
In the joy of swift, vivid seasons, blooms are coming,
For when nature's not singing, it's sweetly humming.

"blooms are coming, For when nature's not singing, it's sweetly humming." Perfect! Hot cocoa, classical music in the background, and someone dear to cuddle with. Love it!
