The Candle

Decades ago a candle of love lit In my heart’s temple Shaded by my passion Survived winds of dispassion

Thanks for your admiration, Mathew. I mean shaded by my passion against the winds of adversities. I'll surely edit the poem for greater clarity within the limitation of syllables allowable.
