Orange and Black Candles
Orange and black candles are made this way
There are forces unbelievable and true
Feelings abound created from being gray
Truth be known they keep you from feeling blue
I feel a calm ease when I’m around them
Orange and black candles are made this way
There’s no greater feeling than when
This candle is brought into the light of day
There is a glow that wafts from their stay
Orange is like a pumpkin, black is like the night
Orange and black candles are made this way
The smell from them bring about love tonight
They may not create much light in a room
The shadows are long, and light is okay
They don’t inflict an aura such as doom
Orange and black candles are made this way
