Oh, Lamppost, you light my way through the streets in the darkest of hours. You give life to the sidewalk as the skyscrapers tower. You hold my hand as I walk down the river, Giving me warmth so that I don’t shiver. You clear my head of worries, And unlock the door to my mind, As you look deeper inside, I wonder what you hope to find. You hold the light of the stars, But when I look again, All you are, Is my little lamppost friend.

Lamppost
Oh, Lamppost, you light my way through the streets in the darkest of hours. You give life to the sidewalk as the skyscrapers tower. You hold my hand as I walk down the river, Giving me warmth so that I don’t shiver. You clear my head of worries, And unlock the door to my mind, As you look deeper inside, I wonder what you hope to find. You hold the light of the stars, But when I look again, All you are, Is my little lamppost friend.
I wrote this for school but I thought it was a good representation of how random objects in the city have a lot of personality.
