LightbulbAm at a point in my age
Where i ask myself
What am i doing?
I've spent majority of my life chasing dreams
Through thick and thin
Through nook and cranny
Up and down the turbulence of life
I've spent much of my time
Playing cards
Sharp spades have left scars
Heartful lovers have left...

When the Lightbulb Moment CameSadly she sat
all alone in her chair.
Once Family had left,
there was no one else there.
The tear from her eye
was still wet on her cheek.
She wiped it away.
Her future seemed bleak.
A thought came to her
of what she might do.
An interest it was
that she could pursue.
Before...

Lightbulb ThoughtsA ceiling lightbulb blew and hark!
I needed to replace it.
For reading in the semi-dark?
I knew I couldn’t face it.
I found the bulbs and had to climb,
While worried about falling,
Up on a stepstool, taking time
So not to end up sprawling.
Removed the old, screwed in the new
And...

LightbulbThe extreme fisherman
Hangs upside down
Delivering snow
Traded for straw
Confused about its job
New planet in the cube
Growing twisters
Ancient time tools
Downward rhymes
Falling up high
Magnetic ice
Draws liquid from your eyes
Look up and try
Ideas with no sand
New state of matter
Won’t be there for long
If the newcomer glows
White heat from the...

The LightbulbYou are the one who gives us light.
You help us read by being bright.
To empty our rooms of the dark.
To even brighten up the park.
Many use you every hour.
I don't like to waste that power.
You've helped to fight the dark of night,
but sleeping I don't...

A Lightbulb Went OffDawn is here the stars have gone
Her crack was heard many miles
Now the lightbulb has gone off
Reform is now due
A common thought but an
Uncommon idea arose
What is that idea?
Let there be peace on this earth
Common_let peace start within

Changing a LightbulbThe lightbulb blows; we sigh and groan.
I’m sure that we are not alone
In being bothered by the fact
That age has made us slow to act.
The ceiling fixture’s eight feet high
And vigor is in short supply.
My husband fears that he might fall;
His balance he trusts not...

Invention of the LightbulbIt was Edison In a lab
Gave night its noon.
He bottled up all he could
Of that hour's boon.
And washing walls the world over
By volt overseen
Moved the sun to frankness;
"My auxiliary sheen!"...

Lightbulb Road Recycle ProjectLightbulb Road Recycle Project
Thought up by Wiz Kids
Improvement Central
Sealed lavishly by Engineers
Who were acting like
Old-School Nay Sayers
Freshly graduated architects
thrilled with the beauty of their sparkling masterpiece
Begged Governor to cut opening ribbon
This would put their state on the map!
Governor not as happy, after spending...

The Lemon Yellow LightbulbYou left at the first flicker of dawn
as the pioneering rays of Sun
diluted the chaotic dark of night
and the morass of words exchanged.
I would have, if not for my dead legs
followed, at least crawled
but you had gone before, and returned.
Dragging my cold body toward the...

LightbulbAkin we are to Lightbulbs,
but not as may be told;
for creativity and Eureka! —
are dreams that can be sold.
We invite them their Control,
and hand over our souls;
prov'd that subtly they may embark,
and Switch us —
Bright, or Dark?
So closed our eyes will be,
whilst openess to “see”;
The...

LightbulbThe air writhes for a funnel.
The wind tunnel is unusually special.
Quick sell a landfill a prequel.
Befell death knell in a clam shell.
The lightning bolt on a beach.
Thin glass forms from the impact.
A firefly trapped inside signals his family.
Goodbye.
