Within the Glow

Sitting around the campfire
Late on a Friday night
Relaxing in a lawn chair
Trying to make life seem right
The stress begins to fade
As I pop another cold one
Staring at the flickering flames
My mind thinks of no one
It strays instead to the place I go
Where my imagination lives
Within the glow I begin to create
And a new story begins.
