Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ This is a candle I have treasured for a number of years.
It has never been lit because I love its style and atmosphere as is!
In particular, I love the hint of "old gold", "old yellow" tone!
And the words inscribed on the open page are quite haunting!
The Wizard
Deep in your ancient castle chamber
on your magical spells do you labour
to protect your noble King Arthur's reign
against the dark forces of evil's domain.

HOT #105 ~ Yellow
~
In the strange darkness
Keep yellow spirits faded
Keep inner light lit

Thanks for stopping by.
Just think mow much more yellow it would look if you lit it!
I'm sure I'd be just as you are....never, ever to light the candle. It's too beautiful.

Beautiful candle...:)...
nice haiku:)
I've been known to do that too - never light a candle because it's so nice just the way it is. This one is really neat.
Interesting candle, and a unique shade of yellow. I too have candles that sit unlit for years because I don't want to part with them.
