The Sun’s Brief Candle Poem by Charl JF Cilliers
The Sun’s Brief Candle
When I wake in dawn light,
diffused by mist into a deathly grey,
and contemplate the passage from sunrise to night,
knowing that the sun’s white warmth will clear the day,
I bend over the page studiously to write
these urgent words before the chill
night mists return and snuff out the light
of the sun’s brief candle on the window sill.
