Pictured Valentine

A narrow piece of wood
Is crawling up the post
Its stops for push-ups
Like a true athlete 
And to feel the sun
On its back basking
So true an acolyte 
Of the light it's become
A little flame with legs
Darting off or standing still
It's not just the flame itself
But our two minds right now
Holding the picture
Of it together amazing
So it never dissolves
