The Flame Of Love
English Poetry |
The flame of love is not yet dead –
The waning wick waits in pain,
Hovering on the edge of hope,
Like a patient on the death-bed;
While the life-giving oil
Ebbs fast below.
Ah, were it not for this chance breath of breeze,
That fans the flame afire;
Until it glows again,
With the radiance of the setting sun.
The wick burns low, ever so low,
Hush! Blow not too hard, Oh breeze,
Lest you blow it out forever.

Hi Kusum,
The flame of Love shall always flame forth.No Breeze can blow it away .It shall sustain like the fragrance of the jasmine on a summer night .An abstraction , ajoy forever and forever.

Kusum,
beautiful imagery.
The seeming alternative meaning for “breeze” is well worked.
The oil lamp and sun for the personal and universal is nice,
