A solitary light
Will continue to fight
Against the darkness

Daylight still remains
Behind the closed shades
But inside the candle light
The warmth sustains

Winter Lights

Sitting at my workstation
The only reminder of celebration
A candle on the windowsill
Without any flames,
Just very still

Winter Lights

A red heart
For the frozen
Never apart
Never broken

Whether day or night

Sunday, Two

“Sunday evenings often feel like the weekend is over before it’s even begun”
Catherine McCormack

Sunday

Behind the shades
Weather in snowy haze
Kids with their sleighs
Running away
As the candle light’s reflected
Weekly grind neglected
Nothing but good feeling projected
Sunday is, perfected

“Sunday evenings often feel like the weekend is over before it’s even begun”
Catherine McCormack

Sunday

The candles are lit
Softest of light they do emit
Inviting to sit
At least for a bit
Lazy day, admitting it
So now, nothing to do
But maybe knit
Before Monday morning
When it’s time to split

“If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, then the meal was cooked a long time ago” Oma Desala

Candlelight (SL-WEEK)

The clock strikes close to midnight
Basking in the glow of the candlelight
Staring into the fire’s might
Conjuring up images on what to write
After all, this is the nightly rite
And the eternal fight
For a writer, up in the late hours of the night
