Like dust on the glass
Like dried oil in the old lamp
I'm without reason
Light cycles round me
I decorate your window
I cast no shadow

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I love the idea of a disorientated lamp and lost light.
Awesome. Wanna see my Magpie? It's at http://thelunaticsdiary.blogspot.com
Poignant and powerful. A wonderful piece.
that's one sad lamp lament

Your poems remind me of the old Bible school song "Give Me Oil in My Lamp". That is such a sad lamp.
A lamp no longer needed; a life without a purpose - the worst that could happen to anyone. Thought provoking haikus.
depth and thought provoking...
Great job with this Magpie.
... enjoyed your Magpie! You captured the 'feel' of the lantern.
Seems kind of lonely & sad.
Nice Mag. I love the simplicity of the words but the complexity of the emotional texture. Love and Light, Sender
A sad state of non-existence for a soul.

Overlooked. Light the fire and find the purpose. Great Magpie!
Sad and lovely, Gemma.
