LAMP POST

I will be your lamp post,

I will provide security,

I will be your invisible ghost,

Guiding you from the edges territory.

 

Prior, it was a burning candle,

My flame will never go out,

Any weather, I will handle,

I love you without any doubts.

 

Coal was then used as a source,

My gas will light the streets,

To show you my loving course,

And to keep our hearts to beat.

 

Then came the arc lamps,

High on maintenance but never you,

You always push me up the ramps,

The best arc was saying “I do”.

 

Incandescent was the way to go,

But, my love got too damn hot,

So an isolation transformer made it flow,

I will never bypass, as we tied the knot.

 

Then I was a high pressure sodium,

We embraced on the sidewalk,

I will raise you up on the podium,

I love your voice when you talk.

 

The future is here, as I am LED,

I will be efficient and wise,

Recalling when I got down on one knee,

That we would be together and rise.

 

Under the lamp post we kissed,

We provided a new era of intelligence,

The velocity of movement won’t miss,

Never divided like a high rise fence.

 

Guiding you through the walkway,

Loving you is so damn simple,

I will be your light every day,

Our light shines and has no dimples.
