At The Hearth In Firelight The parchment worn in the finding of my fingers Untied ribbons, wound of many dreams still lingers Secret sanctum notes, on hobbled knees repent Songs of aching arms among the trees that won’t relent Night, the novice’ heart returns to write Verse in turn to triumph by the firelight Numb, the rhythm flushed from deep within set free Pulsing to the page, become a sage of certainty Settled down in visions simmered quietly revive Subtle in a moment’s peek, these sentiments alive Night, the novice’ heart returns to write Verse in turn to triumph by the firelight Weighted words imprint of images so strong Flicker in the molten waves that linger on Warm upon the cheek, the spell is cast Songs of aching arms set free at last Night, the novice’ heart returns to write Verse in turn to triumph by the firelight Copyright Kkh 11/11/06 |

I enjoyed the wording and the way it was written. Heavenly written. (In) night, the novice’ heart returns to write Verse in turn to triumph by the firelight My only suggestion in parentheses and those to stanzas summed it up alot. |
