  This is a "Game of Thrones" review!Hello, Krista is Taking a Break!  Overall Impression:This poem captivates with its serene depiction of a candle's flame, casting light and emotion into the shadows of the night. I can see why it won a Quill--it has the evocative power of its imagery, creating a meditative and comforting atmosphere that really resonates. Form, Rhythm, Cadence, and Style:The poem employs a traditional, rhythmic structure that enhances its lyrical quality. The rhyme unifies the lines and mirrors the hypnotic, repetitive flicker of a candle’s flame. The choice of words and their arrangement induces a soothing, almost melodic quality that is highly effective in conveying the tranquility of the scene depicted. It reminds me very much of a lullaby. Content:This beautifully articulates the simple yet profound experience of observing a candle in the darkness. The imagery of the candle as a "tiny, dancing star" and "a beacon in the dark afar" elevates the mundane to the celestial, suggesting a universal connection through the solitary act of watching a flame. I think most people can relate to this well-painted image. Grammar and Mechanics:The poem is so well put together, with no noticeable errors in grammar or mechanics. Each line supports the overall flow and impact of the poem, keeping time with the reflective pace and allowing each image to resonate fully with the reader. Final Thoughts:This is a lovely poem that deserves its accolades. It reflects the power of poetry to transform everyday moments into profound experiences. It not only captures the essence of its subject but also invites the reader to find their own peace and place within the gentle illumination of its lines. Thank you for sharing your work with us!
