candle

candle

the candle burned through the night.
I turned many times to watch it—
not really caring to sleep.
turning back I would see
the dim fire folding shadows
into your light hair:
you faced the wall.   held there
between fading candle and you,
I felt dawn sifting in
through curtain cracks.
it was then I blew the flame out
and the new light took over.
my eyes closed.
you did not know any of this;
you were sleeping.

What’s New…

White Owl Web is in the process of re-designing the entire site. Big job! This is going to take a while, folks, and it will have to be done in stages. Thank goodness for CSS and Dreamweaver! Looks like a lot of nights of midnight oil here. White Owl Web hopes you will enjoy the new design, organization, and updates. This site has been gently nudging the Owl for a very long time to give it some serious attention. The time has come!
