Lights In the City

The lights in the city at night are warm and inviting
Harboring seasonal influence through the core of its being
They swarm with a great brilliance of an orange and red glow

Lucilla Carrillo Date: 5/4/2013 5:41:00 PM The lights in the City are beautiful. It's the dark streets that we fear. City lights, City lights, won't you shine again tonight. Thanks for sharing...... Lucilla Login to Reply
