A Candle

A candle is but a simple thing,

It starts with just a bit of string

Yet dipped and dipped with patient hand,

It gathers wax upon its band,

Until it's complete in colors and white

At last it gives a lovely light.

Life is so like that bit of string,

Each deed we do, a simple thing

Yet day by day, if on life's stand

We work with patient heart and hand

It gathers joy, and makes dark times bright,

Giving at last a lovely light
