Flicker in the night
A little lantern light
Driving off the dark
'Til the song of the lark.
Calling home the weary
Through all weather dreary.
Remembering the departed
While remaining lighthearted.
Guarding the diligent
During their midnight stint.
Crouching on the ground.
Perching without sound.
Illuminating the gloom
In all of life's rooms.
