You light up our night

You light up our night with your stem and your wax,
Many sit and watch your flame to help them relax.
Though out time you have been fat as well as a bit thin,
So Short and very tall is also what you have been.

When you are lit you have a tendency to drip,
But mostly when someone has helped you with a tip.
When all can see your dancing little flame,
I am melting, I am melting, is what you will claim.

Over time when used you do get quite small,
But during your life you brighten the hall.
A rainbow of colors of the world you can be,
But you light up our night, so that we can see.
