Anyone could light a candle

Anyone could light a candle, but not the way that you do.
Just like a flower in the rain, you are unique, the same.
Each step you take, each dream you realise, will open your heart, your life.

Great shot Beach - I can feel the warmth coming out of the foto and having three candles is the right number. Very well composed. Cheers, Bernz

You're right Beach, anyone can light a candle, but few can light a candle to you. Nice composition and lighting. TFS

Excellent composition. I can even see a reflection off the waxy surface of the middle candle. This is exposed to perfection. I've seen lots of candle shots, but very few that are this well done. And then there's the words....I think I need to give my wife a big hug when I get home tonight.
