Nonnie's Photo A Day: Candle Shadow

Soft glowing candle

Bringing ambience to prayers,

Sparking memories

My cousin, who was more like 

a sister, bought this candle holder

for me when she went to Alaska

at a Russian Orthodox gift shop.

She also got me an icon of Mary,

unlike any other image 

I have of the blessed Mother.

So every prayer time I see this candle holder 

and the Mary icon, hanging close by, 

memories are sparked, thus drawing  her near to me. 

I miss her so much.
