I have a magic flashlight

that can lighten up the dark,

it can guide you on your pathway,

give your life an extra spark.

It fits like a well made glove,

it's called unconditional LOVE,

the magic ergonomic flashlight

that comes labeled

One

size

fits

all


May the ripple of LOVE
become the wave of PEACE

I love the thoughts in this one Kacy. Love certainly does light up the way in this path of life and bring light to the tunnels that we would otherwise stumble along in the dark.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Tracey,   So many kinds of love, and whatever kind you surround yourself with is good. Your love smile is shining.

Sunshine, happy to add an extra smile to your day.

Bernie, nice to meet you. I'll bet you've already got one, maybe just turn that adjustable beam up a bit right now, it's really dark out there some days.

Midnitesun,
I wonder where that extra bright light came from. I feel better now.

Walker, glad you enjoyed. Have a great Thanksgiving.

Larry, I'm happy to shine some extra warm light your way for your Thanksgiving feast.

Enchantress, smiling at you with flashlights ablaze   Happy Thanksgiving.

Magnus, thanks. Yes, this is about the only thing I know of where one size really can fit all. Happy Thanksgiving.

Don't believe in unconditional love but I am certainly open to having my mind changed.  In the meantime...awesome poem, Kacy.  It's good to know I can count on your heart to be the eternal optimist.

Peaches, thanks, and have a peaceful Thanksgiving Day.

Lone Wolf, yes, it is the most difficult kind of love, but what is truly needed in this world. Have a peaceful Thanksgiving.

Balladeer,   Ever ready, the only way to be.
Have a nice Thanksgiving.

Duncan, I'm sorry to hear about Chip's misfortune. Hope you can still find ways to enjoy your day. Talk to someone by phone or email   if you can't be in 'touch'. And believe it or not, I sometimes have very down, down days.

Cute, and so very true.
It occurs to me that such a flashlight is powered by another sort of battery- people powered   do they come pocket sized?

Thank you, you`ve made me smile after a frowny day.

LOL at the frowny day comment. Thanks for sharing that. Yes, I guess they are people powered. Pocket size would be nice.
Have a nice holiday feast tomorrow, and take your flashlight along.
