Flame of candle,
moths feverishly drawn,
wanting to be burned?


One hovers, watching, learning,
scent of burnt wings
pervade, halting the hoverer.


Patience, the flame will die,
fly to the moon,
bringing the spark to ignite the flame.

Love comforteth like sunshine after rain. (William Shakespeare.)

The attraction of moth to flame....yes.
and the spark to come.
Very well done.
