The Lamp

There I saw her - down the lane
She was trying to save herself
But alas, in vain.

Silent yet teaching
Its never the end
Towards it, yet, we all do wend.

Until the edge we never know
What is there, that lies below.

Life is a myriad
Of pain and sorrow
Of love and laughter
Hopes of tomorrow
and of thereafter.

To Grandma, who passed away earlier this month. You'll always be missed!
