Hearth

Rated "G" by the Author.

Become a Fan

Sitting quietly I ponder
The knowledge that I own:
Demon’s come breathing fire.

I try to ignore them
I am on my journey home
To sit by the hearth.

To watch the turf fire burning
In my cottage of straw and stone
My sacred home of whitewashed stone.

A cathedral to house the hearth
That burns the demons hold
There I must abide.

There I must abide - as a child
Naked before the monsters eyes
Guileless and wise.

You show warmth in this fine poetry. There is nowhere like home and the hearth fires burning make it a savory home and where peace can be found from those demons.

I like this composition. Very light and inspiring. In admiration, Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU

Curious - which came first --- the poem or the photo? It matters not because between them the picture is made perfect. God bless you. Kathy

The photo effectively enhances the whole offering and all of it gives me pause for thought, Tom. Thank you. Love and peace to you, Regis
