Candles at Sunset

The last few strands of sunlight

Filter softly through the window sheers

To leave angelic patterns reaching hands

Across a darkening room to

Touch the tips of candles flame.

Seated near a windows frame

You catch a glimpse of setting sun

And wave goodbye until tomorrow.

Beckoning the favor fair of

Earth and air, flood and fire.

Keeper of all vigilance,

Symbol of all faith.

Offering a beacon to the

Lonely wayward wanderer.

Patient at the journeys end

To guide the weary home.
