Lovely Lamppost
*
*
A lamppost stands ever so lonely,
White frost blankets the black surface,
The light is dim - fading - flickering,
*
A lamppost waits in the cold night,
Snowflakes plastered to it,
They sparkle when light touches them,
*
But this lamppost lacks such luster,
thus it doesn't sparkle.
*
Dawn breaks dusk.
A new day.
*
The glorious sun rises in the east,
Sunlight caresses the lamppost ever so tenderly,
The bulb stops flickering.
It grows brighter...
*
Ecstatic at the touch of sunlight,
The touch of life,
The touch of happiness,
The touch of warmth,
The touch of love...
