CANDLE HOLDER

WHEN I CAME IN TODAY

ON MY DESK THERE SAT

A SMALL VOTIVE CANDLE HOLDER

FILLED WITH FRUIT FLAVORED CANDY CANES.



JUST ANOTHER OF THE SWEET THINGS

MY PARTNER DOES FOR ME

SEEMS LIKE JUST WHEN I NEED IT

HE SURPRISES ME WITH SOMETHING.



ONE DAY A COLOR PRINTER

ANOTHER DAY A 17" MONITOR

A WONDERFUL CARD OR FLOWERS

NO MATTER WHAT THE GIFT, FOR ME IT IS THE THOUGHT.



I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED ANYTHING HE GIVES ME

BUT TODAY OF ALL DAYS IT WAS ONE OF THOSE STRANGE THINGS

TODAY WAS MY MOM'S BIRTHDAY, SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN 66

SHE LOVED THESE LITTLE CANDIES, JUST SORT OF MADE ME SMILE.



I DID NOT TELL MY PARTNER HER LOVE FOR THESE CANDIES.

FOR FEAR HE WOULD THINK THAT IT WAS THE WRONG CHOICE.

I THINK THAT IT WAS THE GREAT SPIRIT LEADING HIM

WHY ELSE WOULD HE HAVE PICKED JUST THE THING SHE LOVED BEST.
