Lampshades of Beauty
Lampshades of beauty come in every shade
everyone should have one in their home
for when the moon refuses to cascade
inside your darkened room, then you alone
can light your inner world with glow and shine;
Bruise of night, ecchymosis of the soul
each fearful child of God should have their own
for when the stars refuse to spark, extol
within your living space, then you alone
can light your inner world with glow and shine;
Expensive trinkets I don't need my friend
for dearer still is inner light of heart
a lampshade is a blessing, a godsend
inside a darkened room, yes you alone
can light your inner world and make it shine.
