Here Is A Candle
Dedicated to my Grandfather - by Jacob

Here is a candle, still and bright
A man became breathless by its light.

For this one candle was none of ordinary kind
Tis one that lingers, in sight and mind.

This candle has a beautiful flame of yellow
A flame, very peaceful, very mellow.

The hard wind blows, but the candle stays strong
This very flame, can it be done no wrong?

Here is a candle, still and bright
This flame is so, because of it's might.

The flame is full of yellow, no blue at all
It is not one of large, nor very small.

This flame is unique, one of a kind
Very bright, but not enough to blind.

Here is a candle, still and bright
It will not die, it is strong with might
