Candles And Nights Poem by Folayemi Akande

Candle is the flare of love
Like luminescence from sun
That unveils dark secret mind
Sultry flames, balmy and warm
Spell that makes us loving beings
Renders blind wing of the room
Where our flesh and blood do meet
Its glare dances like the wind
Mutes invasive muffling noise
Rocky bliss, an aura minds blind
Dusk room, glints our hearts as day
The hue of yelloe faint light
Locks out fair day and paints night
Stench of resinous substance.
As candle to the fire
So is my love depth for you.
