City Lights

by Chrissy710



The city lights are often burning bright
but what may lurk in shadows of the night?
Around the corner lover's locked embrace
or homeless roaming streets to find a place.

The laughter loudly heard from a night bar
or music sweetly playing from afar.
Could see some pretty girls walk down the street
excited at the prospects they might meet.

A stranger who may reach out for a light
enjoy another cigarette's delight.
Perhaps you'll find a cat out on the prowl
may hear a lonely dog release a howl.

The bustle of the people passing through
some slowly strolling down an avenue.
All making their own way throughout the night
in shadows, or by cities burning light.
