Candle light

Candle light
flickers
casts a glow
silhouettes your frame
and through the window
across the way
a shadow
sits staring into the night
dreaming, with
eyes open
of roses red
perfumed sweet
white damask
table cloth
pewter table ware
porcelain
crystal
all in a silhouette
of candle light
and in the bedroom
all alone
she dreams of him-
tall
dark
handsome
cliched-
bathed in the glow
of candle light
