Tending a Fire

In the depths of my house I sit,
Draw in the trials of the day
And build a fire.

Sunk deep in my chair
Draw conclusions on some matter,
And tend a fire.

Steep ramparts above hold high
This lone man looks to them then down
To my fire.

And think on the day,
Parse out special things and hold them close,
Things made pure with fire.

If only to stay warm.
