The Embers

Chris Hall60 Comments

he’s a little goblin
and rather sweet
but he’s lonely
and he’s looking for a mate
there aren’t very many left now
and that so sad
he’d been busy in the embers
and suddenly she’d appeared
she smiled and waved
let’s be lovers, eh?

For the visually challenged reader, this image shows an outdoor scene at night. There is an open log fire burning in front of a wooden bench and a table. There are a couple of candles burning on the table.

The log fire has a strange-looking flame burning in its middle, that looks like a time creature of fire. A few iron spits are thrust into the ground near the fire.
