~ Bygone beauty - the spark still pulsates ~ - quote by poet Antique and retro junk or culture? I bought it way too expensive at auction Aging and rusty Useless you're probably thinking A rustic lantern from the time when kerosene lamps was the best one had Timeless design with soul, charm and uniqueness Brush and rub Of sentimental virtues the need for mercy, nursing and care in the hands of love The beauty is temporarily hidden will soon regain its former glory The history of the lamp, - the unvarnished truth Brush and rub 03.04.2023 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved - 'R' Words - Poetry Contest - Sponsored by: Constance La France 1st place in the contest

Ha, had you found an Aladdin Lamp instead of a Lantern. With a brush and rub you would have gotten a Genie out of it. lol.

Light never loses its shine. Shadows can cover it, rust can temper presence and time, but love will not forget -- inside ever so bright once realized.
