The CandleWith the candle I am listening

With the candle I am writing
Feeding paper with the words
Creating once again my works
Noting in the flame

With the candle I am seeing
Texture, color, lit up right
Flickering all through the night
Bathing in the flame

With the candle I am listening
Silence telling fables deep
Treasures for the calm to keep
Waiting in the flame

With the candle I am learning
Seeing truth from flesh to bone
Unhindered by the wall or stone
Hiding in the flame

With the candle I am teaching
Mysterious as clear as day
Helping kin to find their way
Walking in the flame

With the candle I am showing
Shadows pulled away from lies
From silence to the loudest cries
Dancing in the flame
