This is a poetry,prose,Haiku and writing site
Edna St. Vincent Millay
1916
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!

An excellent, meaningful haiku.
Nice!
It does go so fast, particularly in retrospect! Nice work, Melanie!
Original and clever, enjoyed reading it and thinking about it.
I believe the petals feel this as they fall. Beautifully done.
Just beautiful!
And, it seems to be going faster!
Good poem.
