warm in the deepest of caverns
   bright in the darkness of night

rich with two fairy-tales come true
   saved from our own foolish ways

you the everlasting candle
   and I, the ever-burning flame

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".

this says it all:

   "you the everlasting candle
    and I, the ever-burning flame"

I love this, it paints a stunning picture in my head.~L

To be secure within yourself, Ticklefingers, as this poem implies, is a wonderful thing.
