Clandestine Candlelit Night

The soft glow of candlelight,
Illuminates the night,
With flickering and dancing light,
Like distant stars in flight.

It casts shadows on the walls,
That move and sway,
As though alive and sentient,
In the silence of the evening day.

The candle burns so quietly,
Giving off a gentle and pleasant warmth,
It's like a friend that's silently,
Sitting beside you, in the calm of the

candlelit room


in my candlelit room I am in a meditation and total withdrawal
and I am travelling back, back, back in time with a sad sigh
I know what comes next and I want to weep with love
my dress a cloud of red chiffon flowing, flowing
you whisper I love you and I turn the page
back, back, I turn

Of candlelight,

Red At Night

Great black clouds
Clot the blood-red sky, 
Pink stained shadows
Where daylights go to die.
Candlelit processions 
In valley ways awake,
Trickle waxen grief
Onto valley lake,
Threading bright the promise
Though choir has ceased refrain, 
Holding back the night
That dawn should come again.

If only I could wish success 
     upon a generation~
           I'd deeply gaze
into the burning core of my
              Candlelight~
        A flame

Candlelit Vigil

The sewing machine, long idle, gathered dust
Their farmland sapping every last ounce of energy
Animals and crops, entrusted and on her own to adjust
With welcome visits of encouragement from the clergy

All the men had enlisted swearing they’d be back
Leaving behind wives who hushed their worst fears
Nights spent dreaming of men riding home on horseback
Godforsaken days turned

Candlelit Fantasy

No words can describe what you do to me
You inject in me some sort of venom-like sweetness
Mind and body erase
Making room for feeling and admiration
On my side of thought, you merely despise me
You leave me in melancholy wonder
Melting me like a candle, I become so low
And burn all the more!
Because this wax in me is

Candlelit Dreams

A vanilla candlelit dream
floats down a clear blue stream

The earthy sun does shine on
red hot flame lit til dawn

Floating down the river so sweetly
As you come over with daisies to greet me

Smells of dew and music of doves
movements of shew shew and voices of love

A spirit filled soul inside the river blew
the flame only grew
