* Candle in the Wind

Centurion, South Africa

Goodbye England’s Rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
You called out to our country
And you whispered to those in pain
Now you belong to heaven
And the stars spell out your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset
When the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along England’s greenest hills
Your candle’s burned out long before
Your legend ever will...

Music by Elton John

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

Nice interpretation of the title. I like the combination of warm colors here.

Excellent! Lovely composition and the color of the candle is also perfect. As is the catching of the flame just before it is extinguished. Best Wishes, Traveller
