One Candle

One Candle

One candle sits upon a sill
Set for this day of gloom
It will remain throughout the night
One candle, in one room

It is not bright by any means
But it will guide you in
This candle is a welcoming
From those that dwell within

Take refuge from this night’s cold air
Or from a rising storm
You’ve traveled long, and have grown weak
Come in, and please get warm

Sometimes we need a helping hand
To make us all feel right
Just rest, and try to gain your strength
Before you step back to the night

And when your journey brings you home
Where you are better still
Remember to light one of these
Then set it on the sill

For there are others on life’s road
With way too much to handle
They may be searching for the light
Which shines, from that one candle

good job, similar to an idea I was working on, but I think you expressed it better, so maybe it's best left unfinished.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
