Silent Reflections

I lit a candle a few years ago
I watched the colours of the flame
flicker and dance,
As the candle shone brightly
I reflected on the memories
of times past,
I heard a soft gentle voice
whisper, that I am here
with you,
That same candle is still
shining brightly,
the flame is still dancing
and flickering
the gentle voice, still
whispers,
yes memories and my light are eternal.
