Seven Candles Poem by Syed Karim

Seven Candles, black, red and green
Like a picture what a pretty scene
They wiggle, they flicker, they dance in the air
They light up the world, their life they share
They remove darkness light up our way
They give up their life with fun and gay
At night they help us to think and read
Help to plant our life's Dream-seed
They are like Angles, bring hope joy and fun
They keep on smiling even before they are done
They chase the darkness, all around they lit
But they can not light up under their own feet
Candles, Candles I love you so
Please stay with me, Don't leave me, don't go
Hope to be like you one day
Be a hope for others, I pray.
