Keep a Candle

Keep a Candle

A Poem by Debbie Barry
"

A new nursery rhyme, which poppep into my head in the night.

"

Keep a Candle

 

Keep a candle shining bright

On the windowsill tonight;

I’ll be home before first light,

If I keep it in my sight.

Sounds like a long lost sailor coming home and needing guidance... Such a good rhyme, keep up the writing I feel these will catch on..
