Pride - Haiku

A candle, modest, glows
Proud suddenly, at its most dazzling
 The room goes pitch black

    Darkness is the joy of a candle as they are the center of light in a dark place. I enjoyed this haiku a lot!

    I like the deeper truth this gets at.

    Beautiful haiku here... and being a stickler for the syllables, I'll say count and eliminate... Forgive me. :-)
