  1. The lantern went out, but the jack-o-lantern stayed lit. As long as the path is not completely dark, there will always be candy.

  2. chinese children frolic across the concrete slabs, tangoing with the fire as these bulbs hang over them . it has been banned in he country – fire will cause the wood to burn. but they don’t care, and only play innocently with the flames of life and their youth; until a strong wind comes, wanting to play.

  9. The lantern was bright, almost glaring compared to the sleekness of the night. It barely lit 5 feet of space, engulfed in fog the way that it was. But it’s brightness was still something to admire.

  13. i held a lantern in front of our
    trembling bodies, looking frantically
    for our mother.

    we were young.

    out in the woods, i found her.
    your eyes were shut to the encroaching
    darkness.
    there she lay, head bleeding,
    legs spread.

    when a little girl screams in the woods
    that her mother is dead,
    no one hears.

  14. Lantern reminds me of camping. My sister is camping this weekend, and I am jealous. Lanterns lead the way in the dark. So symbolic. Why is a torch(which serves the same purpose) always used to represent lighting the dark? Usually referring to knowledge. Because it is more classic? More appealing?

  20. Light my path for the moon is shielded
    Like my heart, so open up,
    Raise your sword and cut me down
    By the lantern-light we walked hand in hand
    Yet the trees still whistle and blow in the night,

  21. The light from Papa’s lantern swung drunkenly as he hobbled down the path from our house to the Smith’s. The baby was coming, coming quick, and Papa’s crippled leg kept him from walking quickly.
    “By the time he gets there, the baby will have popped out already.” Sarah whispered in my ear.

  23. One if by land, two if by sea. Or is it the other way around? In Chalmette , every year they offer lantern tours of the Battle of New Orleans feild. And it is usually the on the coldest and wettest night in January to trudge with strangely dressed amatuer re-enactors through the mud.

  24. The light blinked as an eye in the moonlight. The boy watched it, attentive, receptive. His hair glistened in the dimness. He and the lantern were all I could see.

  25. it was a dark night and we had just left the party. I could see the lantern burning brightly as we walked along in the warm summer air. We were alive. We were young. It was over. I’m not sure if we knew it then or not.

  26. a lantern is something that guides you in the dark. we all look for something to guide us. weather it be a person or a thing. for me, God is my light in the darkness, the light guiding my path. he shines His light on me during my times of darkness.

  27. I awakened to a bright lantern reflection in my eyes. Hooded, I peered across the room to see who was awakening me. It is the lover of my night life…the man of my dreams. Why does he visit me in the nocturne and depart at dawn’s light?

  28. I think of fire and paper lanterns. Lanterns remind me of chinese new year. I have never really had any experiences with lanterns. This is kinda hard, maybe its the word. All I’m thinking is stream of consciousness. virginia woolfe. I wish I did more reading in high school. Wow. Oops, i accidently hit the wrong button so now I get another 60 seconds to write, but lantern really does not conjure up much. New word please? This is a very interesting concept though. I am quite amused. I think i will do more.

  33. I want there to be a light at the end of this tunnel
    but your face is the only light i can see
    it also happens to be the one thing i can’t have

    well i’m sorry i can’t share that because you were my hope for life.

  35. I find my light by the

    and in it you can dance like the moths
    the little fireflies
    or slump down and out of the
    into the
    dark

  36. I sit in the middle of my rag-rug raft, drifting in the valleys of clothes mountains. I can still hear my music shining on the horizon.

  38. It’s glow shot back at me
    off of the lake
    Dark with crawfish creeping
    Net hovering,
    in for the swoop
    Raccoons looking for their
    next meal by moon.
