The meaning to one who needs candlelight is limned well against the pesky wick. Nice haiku, Lyn.

Thanks for all the encouraging comments. I am coming out of ten years of hibernation.

Lyn -

This brought a smile to my face. Very nice darlin'. Was the 6-8-5 rhythm intentional?

Hey David, I did not even realize it until you pointed it out. I guess it isn't really a haiku, but I liked the way it sounded.

That's all that's important darlin'. There are many versions of Haiku and this IS one; I wasn't trying to pick, just curious.
