A World Full Of Lit Candles

There is a candle that lives in us all

Sitting dormant through the winter spring summer and fall

Awaiting to be lit by the flaming light of love

Giving and compassion are what the flame is made of

Once the candle is lit it shall be passed

On to the next until the very last

Then one day we will all share the same burning light

A legion of lit candles that light up the darkest night

All united basking in one single flame

Eternal is it’s measure love and compassion it’s aim

Never to be extinguished even by the harshest of winds

It stays lit even when it sways and bends

The icy frigid cold of hate would deem it too hot to handle

As it melts away and all is left is a world full of lit candles
