frayed nerves averted
with easy access to warmth
my secret is unveiled
~
My sitting room holds a secret, if you have been following my blog for a while you might know what it is as I have mentioned it before and the Haiku gives you a clue.
I will reveal the secret tomorrow. Although then, as Rainbow J says, it will no longer be a secret … except to those who come to the house for the first time.
Joining with Ronovan’s Weekly Haiku Challenge, prompts: FRAY and VEILED

Amazing! We haven’t room for a secret cupboard but our logs do get a bit untidy sometimes! 💚💛❤️💜💙

I haven’t had the right lay out in a house before this one. It works a treat.

I’ve been a bit behind in my reading, so saw the answer before this post! A grand secret, indeed, would not have figured it out. Love this secret! 😉

My uncle and aunty built the same set up in their house about 45 years ago, so I have to confess, I knew your secret!!

Ah ha! I saw it about 25 years ago and have only just ad an opportunity to recreate it. I don’t know why it is not done more often, it is such a brilliant idea.

You did Denis, well done. I saw the idea in a house about 25 years ago and did not have an opportunity to recreate it until now. I just love the ease and simplicity of it. Thank you for the link.

I would guess it is a wood burning stove like Nanacathy.
