Life, like a candle burning, <br />its flame nearly extinguished <br />by the harsh blowing winds of life, <br />but then, just often enough <br />to keep the candle hopeful, <br />the wind becomes a gentle breeze <br />and the flame begins to dance.<br /><br />Barbara Haskell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-candle-burning/
