Love is like a candle slim and fragile flickering in the night wind bending, turning in the shifting breeze melting the soft wax of time spilling downward in warm rivlets hardening into cool reality This tiny flame struggling to survive emits a dancing glow of soft luminescence darting into the dim corners of the unknown retreating, advancing, laboring in the quest for truth Threatened perpetually with extinction by the gale of prevarication the squall of intolerance the gust of indifference it prevails and offers hope against the darkness |

Beautiful analogy Pegasus... "Threatened perpetually with extinction by the gale of prevarication the squall of intolerance the gust of indifference it prevails and offers hope against the darkness" Love it....Bonnie |

Pegasus; The analogy of a candle flame to the enduring fragility of love that is a light in the darkness of the loneliness of the world, is exqisite. Ellie P.S. Thank you for your reply, more of my poems can be found if you do a search above, I've written hundreds! le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne con-nait point....the heart has its reasons that reason knows nothing of.. |

This is really nice Peg........candles are so emotive yet capable in fire of total destruction....on the other hand they are fragile too..Lovely Jon [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 11-02-2000).] |
