a single flame uninhibited as it burns how i long for the freedom of the fire to dance it's own dance to feel what it feels to be what it wishes to be... looking into the deep, rich colors- vivid shades of emotion- i become mesmerized... forever lost in the carefree waltz of the candlelight... ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

Vicky, I never thought of envying a flame, but you make a good case for it. I especially like the "vivid shades of emotion". To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Quite a compelling piece. Your sentence at the end causes me to wonder if we have a fictional piece here or not. |

flicker little light through season always shining memories in flame Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I love candlelight, especially this time of the year, and this made me light several! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |
