CandlelightA Poem by SueI was sitting in a church observing a candle burning and I thought of this...
Flickering,
you lick your waxy lips
And
dance upon your candlestick
Set
amongst the floral art
Or
maybe floating along so gently
Passing
by your glass-like friends
Serenely
gazing all around
Standing
so tall amid the brass
That
tries to outshine your light
Yet
never quite achieves your harmony
Continue
on, so brightly blazing
Shadow-like
in corners bare
A
hope for us all
