 The Mistress of Word Play

Lamps


Lamps in this poem refer to the human spirit or soul. I do believe after we die we become a part of something greater and everlasting.








They flash and glare,
and give their share,
of light.
They glow and blur,
and seem demure,
all night.

They may be red,
at least seem dead,
and gone,
but when a lamp goes out,
there is no doubt,
in the heavens they live on.
