Burning Candle

A flickering light, amidst the dark

A gentle glow, a tiny spark

A burning candle, standing tall

A symbol of hope, for one and all

Its flame dances, with grace and charm

A beacon of light, against the harm

It warms the heart, and soothes the soul

In its presence, all worries roll

Scented wax, filling the air

A tranquil scent, beyond compare

Aromatic notes, of lavender and rose

Casting a spell, wherever it goes

As the hours pass, the wax melts away

But the flame stands strong, never to sway

A reminder to us, of life's fleeting time

And to make the most, of every chime

With each passing moment, the flame grows dim

But its essence lives on, within the wind

For even when the candle burns no more

Its light and warmth, forever will endure

So let us be like the burning candle

Holding on to hope, through every gamble

Bringing light and love, to those in need

A burning candle, a symbol of humanity's creed.
