I have this cave terrain made in Bryce and a torch with flame modeled in Rhino. I need to know how to get a ball of light to surround the flame on the end of the torch. Any help is deeply appreciated.

Parent a sphere prop to the torch and use these settings. Also, you'll want to disable shadows on the sphere prop (properties panel).

Is lighting ok ?
you can find the candelabra as free props on Poser4&5 page. Enjoy

That is a lovely candelabra and scene, but why is she about to get shot in the butt?

at the beginning I just wanted to try a candelabra lighting ...then I though at "Silence of the Lambs"....

An array of 6 spotlights around the flame, arranged in an octahedron, with distance start at 1 Poser unit, distance end at about 20-50 Poser units, angle start at 90, angle end at 150, yellow-orange colored, will simulate a fire spotlight and make sure the flame is bright. Not as good as a true spotlight with volumetrics, but you'd need Poser 6 (or Bryce) for that.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
