The Candle

Written spontaneously one day :p Wanted to write something, and this was the finished product. This was the second poem I've ever written, also a new version!

When I've lost all hope

And don't know what to do

I can count on my candle

To always get me through

In the night its flame flickers

Beckoning sweet dreams

I lay my head on my pillow

And see many pretty scenes

Its sweet vanilla scent

Goes wafting through the air

Making my toes tingle

And making the flame flair

I touch it's smooth surface

As wax slides slowly down the side

I feel its pleasant warmth

I let the candle be my guide

As the morning comes

I blow the candle out

And wait in anticipation for the night

To bring the candle flame about

Constructive please :)

Yeah this is a pretty late reply, I haven't been on in quite a while
Thanks for the constructive criticism :) I fixed the grammar.
I don't exactly...know what it was supposed to represent. I sat down and wrote what was in my head one day:P
Thank you :)

Grammar fix: You can delete all the apostrophes; you don't need them.

Ahh I could practically smell the candle while I read this! I'm wondering if the candle symbolizes something else?

It's a nice little poem. I like it.
