The flickering Candle....

 

Sparkling and shimmering the candle glows,
my hopes and dreams swirling in the vibrant orange hues.
Like a graceful ballerina
the light dances and sways,
my thoughts mesmerized by the silent beat,
its beauty reflects through the windows of my soul.
I feel empowered. I feel hopeful.
This tiny flame casts its light illuminating the darkness.
What a symbol to embrace!
Let my heart be like the candle
spreading its light of joy, of compassion, of love.
Let it reflect in the hearts of many
and awaken our senses,
to live in the light...
to be the light...
forever burning bright.

Yes Lord! let my heart be like the candle spreading its light of joy, of compassion, of love.

I captured this picture on a lonely night when I was alone at home waiting for my dear husband to return. Ah! what solace the flickering light gave me.
