The Fireplace

Rating: 5.0


Woods in the fireplace
I watch the flickering flames
Like great memories
Flooding back my mind and heart
Transport me into the past.

There is something about flickering flames, be they from a camp fire on a wintry night (which we had had recently a few times here at Bangalore) , or even from funeral pyres, they transport you to an unknown land, lost in thoughts, I fully go with your thoughts in this lovely piece.

Yes, memories come to our mind like embers from a fireplace and spark off like flames taking us to our past. Some are delightful memories and some painful....! A lovely comparison! Altogether the poem is a small sparkling gem!
