In a Single Night
A single candle
 Is set in the middle of
 A still, dark, silent night,
 Creating a halo of blurry light
 Around a single flame.
 
 A single breath of wind
 Carries away an ember,
 Feeding, nurturing, keeping it alive,
 Until it lands upon
 A single dry branch.
 
 A single ember
 Alights the dry branch,
 Setting flickering, burning it bright,
 Placing in the dark night
 A single bright sun.
 
 A single CROAK
 Sounds so very near
 Joining, singing, making a
 Symphony of sounds in
 The single silent night.
 
 A single smile
 Shows upon a wonder-filled faced,
 Splitting, curving, playing
 Upon the face of 
 A single Me.
