Cozy vibes after the first four lines that sit on top of the "I turn on the fireplace", I like the change of action seemingly without there being a change of pace in terms of what's leisurely observed from the same setting, watching the chilly weather from rooms warming up. The organic structure is nicely ambiance-inducing for sleep with its descriptive images adrift just right.

I was right there with you and feel very much as though you did, in fact, write about you. I enjoyed our time by the fireplace one can 'turn on.' I know they exist, have for a long time, yet such seems 'off' to me. A me thing. CayCay

CayCay, thank you so much for the comment, yes I have an electric fireplace, one reason is risk of fire in an old building, my parent had a wood fireplace, I loved it, the smell and crackling, but oh what a mess to clean up, how did that end up being my job, lol, blessings ~
