Hello Karen,
Well done on your poem gal. I can relate to the image although I don't have a fireplace. It's the time of year when we spend more time inside, and time together can be quite intimate. Thanks for sharing this gal.
Have a blessed evening.

No fireplace? In Alaska? Thanks for the read. Karen

No, we have a 5star energy rated home, and there wasn't one when we bought the place. I don't know where it would fit anyway. We had a wood stove for years out at the farm, and that had it's own problems.

Seems like a waste. to each his own. Get cost on the couch anyway. Watch it's a wonderful life. Karen

Love the way you use friends/friendship as a blanket so very well said, yes, it is that time of the year for more indoor activities, and cuddling up next to a fire is a great (activity) very well written and presented****kahpot

You certainly know your way around words Karen, words have a way of producing their own melodies and with these worthwhile words to create the song, as a songwriter you get the creative ways buzzing, beautifully written, blessings, Roy

I see why Gypsy wanted you to split this up. Genius. I could taste the drink, in my mind it was hot chocolate. I could feel the warmth of the fire on the resonating through the socks I don't have on, lol. Enjoying stories told of the past. I'm sorry I'm out of sixes. I wish they gave us more.
Great work, Karen.

My pleasure, Karen.

Hot chocolate of course. And, not a mix either! Karen

No doubt! So much better from scratch.
Comment from June Sargent
This was an excellent addition to the book of renga. Glad you joined this fun challenge. The imagery of staying inside by a fire does reflect warmth on a cold winter night.

The fire looks oh-so-good and so do those socks. Having nice company is even better. This is a warm and pleasant poem, but I just read another person's ranga poem and I have no idea how they are similarly structured.

First you do a Haiku 5-7-5 Then you do A 7-7 couplet you must always follow someone else, you cannot do your two poems together. And they must stick with the theme. Thanks for reading. Karen

A lovely renga that brings out feelings of a warm fireplace, snuggling with a loved one, hot chocolate...The picture was perfect choice to complement your poem. Don

Yes, I had to break the two poems apart. They started out as being together, and Gypsy said no.
So, instead of one two poem Story "Warmth" I have "Baby I'ts Cold Outside" & Warmth. Thanks for the read Karen

Now that sounds mighty cozy and inviting, Karen. I think I like your kind of renga poetry. Well done! Add a little hot chocolate or something stronger and the night is made.
Smiles, Carol
