Lantern

In the stillness of twilight, where shadows start to creep,
A lantern flickers softly, in the silence so deep.
Its warm glow breaks the darkness, a beacon shining bright,
Guiding lost souls homeward through the velvet night.

With every gentle sway, it dances with the breeze,
Whispering secrets to the stars among the trees.
In its glow, we find comfort, a moment to embrace,
A reminder of the light that exists in every place.

Each flicker tells a story, of dreams yet to unfold,
Of journeys taken bravely, of hearts both young and old.
The lantern holds our wishes, the hopes we hold so dear,
Illuminating pathways, dispelling all our fear.

When storms rage all around us, and the path seems far away,
The lantern's light will guide us, through the darkest day.
For in the heart of every soul, a lantern must reside,
To spark the fire of courage, to light the way inside.

So let us lift our lanterns, let them shine with pride,
A symbol of connection, a love we cannot hide.
In every glow, a promise, in every flicker, a dream,
Together we will shine, a brilliant, timeless beam.
