*-I was up late, and my sister challenged me to write a poem. I told her I could not possibly do so on a whim, without any 'inspiration, ' but she persisted. She said, 'Call it 'The Light'.' So here is my poem- written on a whim, very quickly done. Hope it turned out alright! ! -* <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />One day I thought I saw a light— <br />But scarcely could I tell— <br />I only caught it in its flight— <br />As it flew o’er the dell. <br /> <br />You see, it had been dreary—dark— <br />So long since last I’d seen— <br />I only thought—for it seemed stark— <br />That it was a light-beam. <br /> <br />Then “quick! ” thought I— <br />“Surely follow; seek where it doth lead— <br />But it lead into the sky! <br />Yet still I follow—for I have found the need.<br /><br />Paige Scott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-light-44/
