Charlotte, you have wonderfully captured the persona of a lantern glowing in the dark - its warmth, its amber invitation. I always love your visual imagery and wonderful lyrical cadence even in this short poem. Fun play on words. Hope this does (or did) well. Blessings for the coming holiday season!

Me too Charlotte. I wrote a monoku recently and thought, ugh! What is this? But everything is subjective
