Candle Poems - Poems about Candle

Candle

There he was still as a windless night,
As if adorned in the drapes of the stormy sky,
His shield covering the faintest shimmer's plight.

The candle held on to its whispering glow,
On the shores of the unending sea,
It held on in the ruthless wind's blow.

Why the ritual of protecting a such memory,
In the great winds of every

The Legacy of a Candle

Inspired to share my knowledge,
Dedicated to teach with courage,
I gave my service with all my heart—
In my students' lives, I played an important part.

Three decades of guiding the young,
These are my riches, the songs I’ve sung.
I may be a candle burning low,
But the light I gave will always glow.

Proud to shape each growing mind,
And when

When fate blows out my candle and the flame dances like a ballerina at dusk

When fate blows out my candle and the flame dances like a ballerina at dusk,
I will listen to the secret whispers of the wind, spinning tales of long ago,
Neither prayers will halt this departure, nor tears will tame
The ephemeral gesture of destiny that has secretly woven the web that now envelops me.
I will dedicate an

A Candle Inside The Child

People count the years
by candles and quiet tears.
The twenties, they say,
are when we wait
for the first cry
from a miracle
just learning to breathe.

But some of us, like me,
never quite grow up.
Peter Pan weeps
each time the rain brushes my shoulders.
I come alive again
only in fleeting moments,
like the string that’s slipped
from a flying kite.

Just days ago,
that child stirred

Kindness is a Candle

     Kindness is a candle
        a flame ablaze in the heart 

     Its glow lights up a face ~
        never be it erased 

Moon

Candle glow at midnight
The hatch is locked
A scrambling splutter
As I reach for the key of circles and bolts and lines
But just as before
The circle ends
Four corners behind

And I'm scrambling again for another key
I plead the glow as I–
Well, do I cherish my existence once more?

Foot taps to the humming
Blood rushing under my skin
I'm thrown to

Candle Opera

Candle Opera
 Have you ever taken time out to look up at the stars?
 They shine bright from afar.
 Seeing light dancing at night.
 Feeling spiritually grateful all the time.
 Looking up, counting your blessings.
 Through an orchestra, the wind is singing.
 Guidance along the path.
 Growing old, time goes by fast.
 Reach out and

The Candle Trusted The Flame

The candle trusted the flame,
So warm, so near, so bright.
It leaned into the dance of fire,
Believing it was light.

But love that flickers, fierce and fast,
Can scorch what seeks to stay.
Now wax runs down like falling tears,
The flame still sways,
while the candle melts away.

Soon the flame too will burn out,
For after we consume others,
So are we

The Candle Had No idea of her Allure

Dear Future Generations,

The candle did not know whether to snuff herself out
Or begin dancing around the cemetery and give a shout
She knew she was not going to join her cousin, on walk-about
But other than that, she had a vague sense of doubt

Who do you think you are? Asked the snippy porcupine.
He was still pouting when

Candle Celebration

a wax tear formed
on redwood heart
in the dark
yet lit by many
a candle wick
my dry eyes wet

acapella soars
blood sweat tears
adorns
welled up
wall to wall
ascent

hearts rent
and bound
in grief
silent, deafening
defeating
lies

spurs on healing
stoked by
perspective
straight candlesticks
proud, on fire
a Holy Spirit spire

Out, Out, Brief Candle

(Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5)

Out, out, brief candle—flicker, fade,
A tiny light in life’s grand parade.
For life’s but a wisp, a fleeting flare,
A moment’s breath in the cosmic air.

We light our candles, then they die,
In the blink of an eye, we sigh.
But what if life’s not a race to chase,
But simply a candle in a cluttered

Power Of A Single Candle

      A single candle 
   can light thousands
  other candles before 
       it burns itself 
     destroying even 
 the smallest darkness.

Candle

Flames flickered as the candle’s light 
Touched the chilling breath of night
Shadows danced around with no sound
Bottle of ink filled with nightshade
Sleeps under the moonlight
A quill soft as a dream is held by a figure half immersed in darkness
Waiting for the elixir of  thoughts
As the clock struck twelve
With great haste the figure dips the

I slowly fade away, like a candle melting under the weight of time

I slowly fade away, like a candle melting under the weight of time,
My world collapses around me like a house of cards struck by the wind,
I need an outstretched hand to help me bear the overwhelming pain,
To soothe my soul tormented by waves of sadness that drown me in silence.
I drown in an ocean of
