A Candle

A candle left lighting through the dark, lighting in our land, dearly it mourns you. A candle left as it lies by your body, seduced by your ode futile to tame it's light solid, illumes the crossed fingers entwined. date: 11/3/2012 craig cornish contest: Loss

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.-
