the whole lighted candle
i believe i can handle
steadily readily
it wanes and drips
closer surer
now warming my lips
careful am i not letting it spill
till i get it to sit
on the windowsill
with no ill will
just another run of the mill

Clever alliteration Paul - liked the way words flowed into that candlelit scene.
For sure it is a cute one. And I like the simplicity too. Simplicity unclutter our mind. Gives us light spirited feelings. Very enjoyable. 😊 Thank you
A simple poem you say? NOT
I do like the line "now warming my lips". Were you trying to eat it? Or was this for rhyming purposes only?
How about "it wanes and stands...now warming my hands"
No offence, just kidding around here Paul. You should be proud of this one, it IS good!
ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! I like your comment I burst out laughing, now warming my lips. that was a blooper. ha! ha! maybe for the rhyme. I know I'm putting good ones on the forum , but they don"t
