Flame of love come near me
And let me feel the heat
Let me glide above the ground
Instead of on my feet;
Tell me all your secrets
And blaze within my heart
Then my dearest love and I
May never be apart;
For I am no great lover
And cannot crack the code
So bear me up and teach me
And lift my heavy load;
But if my plea is wasted
And life's too much to handle
I'll have to pop out to the shop
And buy myself a candle.

Hi John i really thought this was a love poem but you leave me smiling at the end good one
Hope its a scented one John - chocolates would be better though! !
Keep that candle out of the wind. A hearty, humorous lament-great attitude about life and love

Well, you got me again. I start reading this intense love poem, and I end up laughing. I guess that's good. You're teaching me not to be so serious. I loved the poem.
