The small lamp commenced to burn, <br />When two bodies united as one, <br />From the day one until the day yet to know, <br />The lamp burns slowly in the spirit of ions. <br /> <br />Keeping the lamp safe from rough climes, <br />Protecting the yarn from the heavy dye, <br />Nourishing the lamp with fuels approved, <br />The lamp may burn quietly as expected. <br /> <br />we let it burn with bigger flame, <br />By adding steroidal fuels and nocturnal fun, <br />we let the motor to run in higher speed, <br />by pressing the temptation to accelerate. <br /> <br />The lamp may start to play snake and ladder, <br />By climbing up and down at the dice of illnesses, <br />Sometimes gets overheated to jam up the motor, <br />Hold your lamp lovingly for it to glow pleasantly.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-lamp-in-us/
