Nights By My Fire

I swear there’s nights
When I squat by my fire
I can almost hear
That heavenly choir.

All the host of angels
Look down at my camp
Chase away chills
And dry up the damp.

It’s those times I know
How lucky I am
And it gentles my soul
Like a little ewe lamb.

If you figure you could use
A course in the divine
Settle into a night prairie
And you'll get a new bottom line.

Beautiful, James. I just wrote in my email how I do love a real fire. Staring into that fire is about as primal as anything we do as humans. How many generations back did our ancestors do the same?
