I'm not an electrician...but I'd say you'd probably be ok. Your light bulb only pulls 23 watts out of the socket, but gives you the shining light brightness of a 100 watt incandescent bulb, so you should be good to go. If you're worried, maybe keep an eye on it for a while and make sure it's not near anything flammable.
