Cozy Feelings

You can never get a good cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.

— C.S. Lewis

The north wind advanced

changing the edge 

of our season —

autumn’s true fall,

the covering of summer’s

sun by the blustering wind

that somehow settles us

to cozy feelings,

and I hold to an image —

dancing candle flames,

my favorite blanket,

a treasured book,

and an evening

lost in its pages.

—C.L. Fisher, October 2021
