The Candle.

A simple thing so cheap to buy
Its use is wide and meaningful
I've used them to light my way
The darkness they do chase away
The Church has them all a glow
A child is calmed before their glow
In colors varied that inspire
They come in size small or large
They seem alive when lit
They even come in fragments
That enhances their smell
No wonder I am forced to tell
That the light will embrace you
One and All.
