An Empty Hearth is Greater Than

Soot
seeking
old embers;
long extinguished—
flames

Blood on the Hearth

In the cozy inn by the fire's warm glow
Lies a woman's body, lifeless and cold
Her hair splayed out, like flames in the hearth
But no fire could warm her, not even in death

The guests all gather, hushed whispers abound
As they try to make sense of this tragedy profound
Who could have done such a heinous crime?
In this

A Heart to Hearth

KEY: H: Heart          h: hearth
h: I can see footsteps coming close to me a mile away but if they stand in front of me, the noise will be blinding.
h: I stand flat-footed on my bedboard perpendicular to my body. Beyond my pane, are the viewpoints on

Separated

How could I have known,
How could I have seen?
I listened, but I didn't hear,
We dreamt of different dreams.

And now it seems the end is near,
And all we feel is pain.
The mask of strength has disappeared,
Empty, we remain.

Time will pass, and time will clear,
If you and I were meant to be.
No room for love when hearts

The Ought of Autumn

It ought to light up my being
With the color and passion
Of its crisp, browning magic
It ought to bring the sounds
Of fire crackle, warm abrasions
And unlimited clinks to hearths
Of every size and flavor
It ought to turn down the heat
Turn up the chill
And turn on the love
It ought to renew our sense
Of joy, togetherness and those
We wish

Home and Hearth

Life is about priorities
     Home, heath, and family

Heart Our Hearth

Heart our hearth, where the love flame burns
It’s a fire without smoke
Behold how bliss magnetism churns
Ego to death does choke

By being self-aware
Under God’s loving care
Bliss currents take the chair 

Bubbling mirth
Heart our hearth

Her Laughter Is All Seasons

Her laughter is all seasons:

It is the April rain that trickles like a fugue
Down the twisted branches of the laburnum.

It is the sparkling rill that rushes gaily
From the first bite of a summer strawberry.

It is the incense mist that dances volute
Through the golden leaf of the temple forest.

It is the sleepy smoke that rises softly
From

I Gave You My Heart

I wanted to give you the poppies field
and the stars, the blue vault,
but full of love, shy, and clumsy,
I gave you a rose in a jar instead.

I wanted to give you precious stones,
beautiful pearls,
but full of love, quiet, in the evening,
I gave you only warm kisses instead.

I wanted to give you the trees and the

The Warmth of a Winters Diner

The Warmth of a Winters Dinner
David J Walker 

The blackened cast-iron caldron 
Sat on the stove burner waiting for
The task to begin
the water and the low flame 
taking its time
all day to claim
a winters meal  

It would begin in the morning
with onion joined by 
carrots and celery 
Chopped on the butcher's block
In bite-sized portions
Adding

August Hearth

As the crickets fiddled in the 
tall dark grass and the
bats swept through the sky,

I sat in front of my chiminea, 
feeding the flames dead twigs 
and dried leaves.

Cross-legged in my beach chair, 
with a salty paperback and a bowl 
of shelled peanuts at my feet,

I sat under the towering twin oaks 
that stood like

A Cold Hearth

Ruled by the cold past,
An empty hearth in my soul
still belongs to you.

An Ode To the Hearth

An Ode To The Hearth 



Everything born is birth
Anything dies is dead

Nothing ever really changes
Because nothing is new

Life is given
This same  life is taken.

Emptied dreams
Emptied hopes and aspirations
At the river Styx eternally floats.

Lukewarm; of what is hot 
And of what is cold?

Man's infinitesimal problems
Take all his times, for human life is 
Indeed vain and
