light the candles


Light the candles
On the compound glows
The dim light shining
The romantic illusion

The passage way
The shrubs and tea leaves
The soft night breeze
Casting shadows of many

People come
Friends and relatives
The food and drinks
The way party begins

Music flowing
The garden full of it
Noises of conversation
Do you hear a word they say?

It's only the human animations
As the party begins to flow
Niceties and hello
Nice to meet you

The caterers busy
Walking in and out
Bringing trays of food
Fruits and drinks

The waiting staff
Alert on their charge
Smell the aroma
Of cakes and sweets

The shadows of many
Clustered amongst known people
The smile and laughter ringing
On a dim light party singing

The gate crashers
Amongst the neighbours
Smiling faces etiquette flow
Let the good time glow

The more the merrier
On the occasion of celebration
Like an open house
Every one is free to walk in

The cultures of many
Manifested into traditions
Time hasn't changed
Yet the people mindsets do

The candles glow
Casting twilight dark faces
Amongst the trees and leaves
Reflection of the human animations

The waiting staff busy
Catering the wishes of many
Of life enjoyments
They see hoping they can one day

The music serenade
The songs of romance
Bringing people together
On a party shyness disappear

Light the candles
Let see the breezy wind dancing
The light gyrating wildly
Of party friends and romance

Do you listen?
The whirring sound from a far
The owl hooting in the darkness
The light dance the shadows glow
