The candles burn so brightly.
they flicker in the light,
casting dancing shadows
on this winter night.
Have you ever watched the changing shadows on the wall from a candle? Have you used your hands to make shadow puppets from that light? My house smells like pine and peppermint from the scented candles I burn at this time of the year. can you try writing your own poem about candles? Hmmm, I wonder what would happen if I make this quatrain into a concrete poem instead? Could I put one or two words on a line to make it tall and slim like a candle? Which way do you think you'd like better? See how much fun you can have playing with poetry?
Joy,
ReplyDeletePlease try it. I can see it burning.
