Life is Like a Candle





Our time on Earth

Is like a candle

It will come to its last spark 

It will not linger through all time…


But… live life

Like a candle

Be a light in the dark 

A guide to the lost and forlorn…


Yes, life is like a candle

Lived for a purpose

Nothing is in vain

Even to its last flicker…

3 Liners


  

3 Liners


There are so many ways to rhyme a line,

so many ways to scribble mine

liberty of the heart and mind

Words


 

Words

5 letter word

powerful like a sword 

It can build 

and it can destroy 

It can make dreams come true

or it can make things turn around anew.

Everything 

are made up of words

even nothingness 

is a word.

Words 

just a 5 letter word

 valuable as time

more precious than gold

A gift

A treasure

Be Still


 

Dark clouds

from time to time pay

uninvited visit…

Sometimes bringing

devastating winds…

At times a destructive storm…

Washing away 

everything that it can devour…

But..,

Rest assured 

that dark clouds never stay

Because the grace of God

will blow them away…
