Christmas by Candle Light
(c)2011 Bob Atkinson
wax dripping, light waving
dancing memories in your heart
the candles flicker brightly
as you're darning your socks
tree lights ablaze
as thoughts re-appear
from old times, were good times
we've put on many years
tree lights of ages
past youth's active stages
done all the dreams
we set out to do
tree lights bring memories
of people gone from your life
through death and moving on
into others' lives
was good those things
we did together, and apart
building that good life
and never having wants
now it is over
all we have left
are flames from the candle
hope we did our best
tree lights ablaze
as thoughts re-appear
from old times, were good times
we've put on the years
tree lights of ages
past youth's active stages
done all the dreams
we set out to do
