Flickering Candle Light -Win
The prevailing light encircled by darkness
I hear whispers of light in night’s calmness
A choir warbling bidding out “Iris! Iris”
That engrossed look, rapt delight of Iris.
Flickering and playing she gleams
And with it my hopes and dreams gleam
In light it dances and sways left and right
Like my Iris swayed in my arms in delight
Like a ballerina she dances casting shadows on walls
Reflecting its beauty thro’ the windows of my soul
The flame casting its light, enlightening the darkness
What a symbol to embrace in night’s calmness.
