You Shine Your Light

You shine your light in darkest night Your beacon burning there so clear If I had wings then I’d take flight You shine your light in darkest night I feel your warmth holding me tight As in your arms you draw me near You shine your light in darkest night Your beacon burning there so clear Written by Brenda Meier-Hans 09.24.2014

a very nice one and it goes along with that lighthouse theme that was being written about here lately. Good luck in the contest. I see it's filling up fast, so I better get BUSY.

This is dead on. I had to look up "triolet" when I saw it in the contest entries. I read many examples. You did an amazing job. You are a talented poet brenda.

I wrote this on a paper then realized I copied a word wrong on Triolet so I just changed it. Hopefully Alfred didn't read it yet or it's been disqualified already.
