Lanterns in the Night

As I traverse the road of *Fleurdeli

The sea reflected a majestic spectacle.

Up in the sky it shines brightly.

The lanterns shimmer as skylight icicles. 

The black and blue night filled with fiery glitters

Ascending aimlessly 'til its last light flickers

And there I thought, I thought very deep:

When the night comes and the sun's asleep.

Lanterns soar to brighten the sky

But it doesn't last - only for a while. 

Similar to us humans; we laugh and love

And be merry today, lifting our hearts above.

But the burning fire in our hearts

Lose its flare, thus, light departs.

In our life's endeavor. In this world where we live.

Nothing lasts eternally... joys turns to griefs. 







P.S. Fleurdeli is just a fictional setting.
