The Candle Glow
(Candlelight)
See the candle glow
For all those we know
That has life above
Prayer is from love
Blessed then are they
Gone on way
To be
Safely
With God
Where
Joy
Does
Run
Deep
And
Yet
Flows very fast while it's still

An awesome poem, Pat. I love the style and format, as well as the message and meaning. "...Joy does run deep and yet flows very fast while it's still" creates a new taste of creativity in my mind. I really enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing and continued blessings, my friend!
