At dVerse Linda is hosting the Quadrille (44 words) with an invitation to use the word inglenook, an old term for enclosed fire, a hearth to gather round. dVerse Poets – Quadrille – Inglenook

“Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell.” Joan Crawford
You Are where I Gather Sombre the days with greying sky wetting my windows, mellowing my mood, Delius drifting upwards like angel wings of lightness, floating above the warm hearth of gentle glow, I reach out for you, you are where I gather soft whispers, my true inglenook. ©Paul Vincent Cannon
