The flame burns hot
The wax drips down
The candle burning brightly
Does not make a sound
The red and orange fire
Captivates my eyes
Seeing how it burns
An intriguing sight
Warmed by the heat
Radiating out
Caught up in the candle
Flickering all about
Slowly leaning forwards
Careful not to catch
Anything on the flame
While I blow it out
