LEAVE THE LIGHT ON

I never paid much attention to this lamp in my living room, it was inherited and has survived a move or two without winding up on the curb. It is functional, unobtrusive and serves as a good reading lamp. Today as light faded outside and I was thinking about what to post, it clicked on thanks to the timer. I saw the graceful curve in its neck and the nice straight lines in the glass shade. I saw that not only was it functional but it had nice form too. This is the light that is always on when I come in late at night from work. A beacon it greets me and its glow warms not only the room, but me. Yep, I'm leaving the light on.
