The candle

Tony36

A candle shines for the fallen

The candle is placed on a piece of wood

The little 'boat" floats downstreem

The candle still glows bright

As it is carried along

 

Finally the piece of wood goes over the falls

The candle is extinguished in the mist below

The flame of the candle may be gone

But the meaning behind that flame never will
