Candle on the hearth on a wet and windy morning.

7.00 a.m.
I got up to make a drink and it is very wet and windy outside, so I’ve lit one of the candles on the hearth. It makes such a comforting glow as the patterns flicker and dance.
it is not quite daylight but I guess it will be like this much of the rest of the unfolding day.
