Scary is the dark night 

The flames dance in delight

With the touch of the wind 

Cold and unkind

Trying to dampen 

Her dreams that happen

And live every minute and moment

Harboured in her gleaming eyes

Encouraging her to take her flight

As she sits rooted with wills of iron

In her modest simple environ

She smiles that enchanting smile

With warmth drawn from the fire awhile 

As the camera captures those twinkling eyes two

I take a dip in them and live her dreams too
