    Candlelight

     Light, come my way
    Flicker on in darkness
    I will drip of your presence
    A fragrant aroma surrounds

    A gust of hot breath
    Tortures my little fireball
    Oh don't dwindle, my precious flame
    Remain a beacon for the lost

    My most beloved lighthouse
    Lead the way for me
    I am growing smaller
    As you linger on

    Oh dear, you make me weep
    Tears rush down my sides
    I am no longer lonely
    Don't leave me in darkness

    Puff! Oh where are you?
    What have they done?
    Don't take my light away
    What can I do now?

    My tears are quietly drying
    I am passing from memory
    You were my reason
    My reason for being seen

    This is a moving poem. Nice imagery. You have an uncanny ability to express with words. Well done.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
