Loneliness invites cosmic company of a love one to sit before a fire-pit.
                   "Lonely Fireside"



A fire in the pit and a bottle of Blue Moon beer
On a moonless evening wishing you were here

Midnight dreams on chilly nights stir in me a restlessness
Longing for our loving conversations and comforting caress

The first smoke shrouds us as our souls cosmically meet
Fiery sparks dance toward hidden stars to eagerly greet

This ebony night conjures up a shivering autumn breeze
Beckoning an intense heat with a fire crackling tease

Distant train's sound acknowledges sadness as it seems near
Sitting alone by a fire-pit with another bottle of Blue Moon beer

Sudden gusts of anxious wind whip the pit's infernal red sea
Frantic flames lick the air reaching for the souls of you and me

A rapid tinkling symphony of tree-branch hanging chimes
Create musical ambiance with fast rhythm and rhymes

Imaginings seem real when we embrace our spirits' desire
Visions of the two of us cuddled beside the now raging fire

What's to become of this loneliness when we must be apart
Shall we forever hail as cosmic lovers to meet only in the heart

A knowing reaches the core of my inner being with white light
Peace and tranquility become the reason for warmth tonight

Out of control flames of doubt are doused to extinguish fear
No more midnight lonely fires and bottles of Blue Moon beer
