Whispers of a Candle Flame

Bookmark
HomePoetryWhispers of a Candle Flame

Light the candle and listen

to whispers or someone breathing. 

Whispers that grow into sighs

within the gentle wind. 

A warm closeness

that seems like a friend. 

Hissing when the wax

meets the flame. 

The yellow teardrop sputters

as the wick crackles. 

When flame and gust meet,

a near-silent chime will tinkle. 

The silence of the flame is deep.
