I Lit A Candle Poem by Phoenix1 Smith

I Lit A Candle

Rating: ★5.0


I lit a candle
seeing it blink
light so bright
atop a tiny fire
on its fine wick
moving, dancing
a rhythmic swing
pattern like flowing
can be mesmerizing

I came in wondering
can this tiniest spark
of dwindling light
invade darkness'
of solitary sadness
on one's soul
that is astray
may this slow
flickering, light
show a lost heart
its loving way...

Full marks for this exquisite piece of poetry. Insightful and philosophical. It shows how a common topic can be substantially satisfying in its poetic avatar. Thanks, Phoenix.
