Flame of Love

We light a candle every night
for you to see your way
it's kept alive within our hearts
on the memory of love's bouquet

When we light our candles
doesn't matter if we're young or old
it flames with hope and desire
and our lives are dusted with gold

Love at first sight is a mystery
for life starts anew with a glance
our hearts fill with joy and break free
as we journey through a world of romance

Once in a lifetime this drama takes place
and it seems that the stage has been set
a stranger, a meeting, a voice and a face
a moment we'll never forget

If the Flame of Hope has found you
take good care and fan it well
or you could lose it to another
only your time and love will tell....

Love at first sight is wonderful,
A winner in my book.
Just make sure you don't have time
To take a second look!


Oh, I'm sorry again, Rainbow! You've written another beautiful piece and I've defiled it with comedy...again. My shrink is not helping one bit!

Beautifully done. Touched this romantic as well. I do have to add though,

Love at first sight, is a delight
but one that I can not fathom.
Suffice it to say,I look for the day
when the love bug crosses this chasm.

Well I tried...almost got there....lol.
