THE BURNING FLAME
The flickering burning flame
The flame that cannot be defamed
Its beauty is sought the world over
Like a love that burns eternally
Bright, bright as the midnight star
But here, right here
So near
So close
Its warmth, its loving glowing
Feeling deep, deep within
Could this flame be compared?
To the red, red rose
The red, red rose that leaves a heart
Never to impart
Flickering, dancing, curling
Shimmering, twinkling, glinting
To an never ending
Tuneless tune
