This is an excellent entry for the six word poem contest.
The flickering image of by the candle flame can be memorizing
as it dances on the walls and ceiling.
It stirs the imagination.
Nicely done.
Best wishes in the contest.

I think light and shadow are the fundamental aspects of imagery. Great personification of the shadows with the dance - there are artists and responders, and you represent both here. Beautifully done!

Dear Poet Six-word poems are quite dicey to deliver with a punch. While your work is literal, to me, that punch is missing with the use of "The" as 33% of the poem. You are gramatically correct in that "The" is used correctly as defined as: an article, which is a word used to define a noun.

But the punch is missing
something as: Candle delicately flickering
have shadows dancing

just my honest input sent with respect

This is a good six-word poetry entry. It has a clear, concrete message. The visual fits well. However, the text needs to be presented with color, bold lettering or some decorative manner to make the presentation better. Good luck in the contest.

As the shadow of the flame dances, the smoke clears the air. Without air freshener, it is a great replacement. Without electricity, you have light. That candle has many uses. For general purposes or romantic dinners. Thank you for sharing.

Hm I like this six-world poem. Short to the point, packs a punch, these short poem forms are hard to write. but you nailed it. I am submitting my own later today.

This is a beautifully written six word poem. It's very difficult to write a poem with so few words. But you did and did it well. Beautiful photo to compliment your words as well. Good luck in the contest.

Oh, you really put volumes in these 6 words. A very nice poem with good imagery and visuals, and I love your artistic presentation and picture.

Good luck in the contest, and I really enjoyed it.

In just six words you have provided a blank canvas for our imagination! Who is dancing? Are they madly in love? Is it their first dance - or perhaps, their last? Very creative and original. Should do well in the contest,
