My morning tea always
tastes better by candlelight
Alone in a room of my own
aware of the stillness that surrounds me
There is something about a lit candle
that makes a room come alive
All my senses become heightened
Wanderlust imaginings fill my mind
The candle flickers with hypnotic light
inviting buoyant energy
to share this esoteric space
as we merge into
secluded stillness
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI never thought a candle would give so much, especially at breakfast time! Oh I'll have to try that as soon as i get back home.
Who said candles were meant to be lit only in the dark?

ReplyDeleteLovely poem! I've always *LOVED* candles! I surround myself with them :-) ♥
ReplyDeleteOh how I love this! You share much happiness through your writings that inspire so many of us. This piece reminds me of a saying that I do not know the author of, but it is perfect for sharing with this awesome prose of yours:
ReplyDeleteThousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. ;-) ♥
I agree the natural elements such as fire heighten the senses...thank you for reminding me...it's time to light candles again. My spirit could use some buoyant energy...Beautifully written
