The candle

A small light is seen

in a corner of the room

flickering in the draft
illuminating the gloom

This candle burns with love
shining on through the night
it`s bright flame alive
a reassuring sight

Purple, orange and creams
Such colours to behold
slowly melting wax
creating pools of gold

With this candle there`s hope
so may it still shine bright
filling hearts with love
all through the long night!


with the candle light there`s always love and hope
