Simple Beauty

Kate Frances June 2, 2018 15 Comments

The light on waxy leaves,

Silent strength of bonsai.

Flame throws wall shadows,

Simple beauty to behold.

    I love this, Viola — both the image and the poem.
    When i first saw it (image cropped a bit by the reader), the candle looked like an opening to a lighted sky.
