Poem 219 - The Light Bulb

The poor light bulb, it burns itself all night

It's a watchman while others are asleep

Selflessly, to all, it does provide light

And it's then turned on when darkness does sweep

Used just at night, it hardly gets looked at

Just to make life easy, it's one more tool

Hardworking it is, but people don't know that

To not think about it makes man a fool

Each moment of darkness is swept by light

And then even in the most poor town

It makes everyone's life look so bright

And when not needed, we just turn it down

At the darkest times it lights every place

But we don't notice, because life's a race
