  1. I saw a lantern yesterday. It was green, I believe. Maud had one similar in her garden. We used to take it along when we went on a picnic, up on the Greer Hills behind the cottage. When night fell, we used it to find our way back home. I have fond memories of that lanter, with its gracious curves and soft light.

  3. A lantern is a beautiful thing to see during the night. It serves as a beacon for the lost souls of those who are lost because they got lost on the way to the ghost bar. of course hippies also like to look at lanterns because the color looks like a beer.

  4. for my sister’s wedding, the bridesmaids carried lanterns instead of flowers. i loke the concept, but not the actually outcome. she taped fake flowers inside. i hate fake flowers. oh, and it was the middle of the afternoon and no need for extra light.

  7. Lanterns. They shine like a dim sunrise, not giving you much light to see with, but just enough for you to accomplish the smallest goal.

  9. golden lantern, paper lantern, sailing down the river into the dark, carrying a candle for a lost soul. we sit on the river bank, watching them fade away, fading with them. it is the longest night of the year, and another fleet of souls is departing into the mist. leaving for destination unknown, into the ocean, into the gloom of night.

  10. A lantern is bright, allowing us to see the way. Sometimes it can be used figuretively versus literal. A person in our life could be our lantern in the dark, helping us overcome particular obstacles that are in our lives.

  14. A lantern is an object of great importance to human civilization. Lanterns allow the mobility of transportation of light to areas with no natural light. Besides being used for lighting purposes, lanterns also play a part in cultural celebrations. The Chinese Lantern Festival celebrates a tradition and puts lanterns down a river.

  19. I couldn’t find my way for ages, I cursed everyone for not helping me in the darkness. I spent years in there, wondering why they left me like that. Little by little I saw and understood. And little by little I built my own lantern.

  21. in darkness, my regrets burn cold
    in winter, my vision is dark
    the her hand, she holds the lantern
    and while my body pains
    my heart is warm

  23. The lantern is hot and green. I see dimly throught the dark as I walk throught the garden with my lantern, to go outside and camp in the woods to the east of the house. I saw a bear by the light of the lantern. Is the the last light I will see is by the lantern. I hope that i see the light of the heavens and it turns out brighter than the light of the lantern.

  24. The lantern grew on stick glue that was hanging from the ceiling. On that ceiling was a drawing of rat poo that was attached to an xbox 360 controller. The controller seemed real enough to fall and murder whoever was under its position.

  26. Carrying the lantern was a big responsibility. Leading the people through the woods and not flashing the light around. Keeping it lit was hard.

  28. I saw the lantern before me. I knew Charles would want me to grab it. But I couldn’t. My captors had me well tied down. The Lantern. Charles said it held the key. But what key? He never told me. Yet here I was after all this mess, looking at The Lantern I couldn’t have.

  29. like a lantern
    guiding my way
    through the night and
    cold

    what did you say
    that made me think
    that you would stay?

    and if i thought
    that was the case
    i should have run
    anyway
    i hated
    loving you
    was the most joy i’ve
    felt
    my small frame
    freeze
    up.

  31. The lantern was in front of me guiding my way out. Guiding me to the happiness that I had long-ago lost. The bright speck of light that was the lantern saved my life. Then I realized that the lantern was you. Thank you.

  32. the lantern light the dim path with an eerie glow.Softly the footsteps traced the darkness. The lantern flickered in the night wind.

  33. the lantern was sitting there with a heart above our heads. he kept talking. the words coming out of his mouth I could see them, I could see the people like haze surrounding us. But the focal point that kept catching my eye was that lantern with it’s bold heart. Embarrassing since we were on our first date (blush). I kept yelling to myself to quit staring at it, but it just called to me and I could not pull my attention back to the sexual magnet in front of me. That changed when she brought the check.

  34. bright lantern
    shining into the surrounding obscurity
    giving clarity
    to unease
    truth to the unknown

  35. The lanter was orange, and I hated it. The smell it gave off was a slithery oily murder of a thing, and when it burned the whole room soaked it in. But it was also dark, and the only thing worse than the smell was the dark, so we used the lantern anyway. (I hated it.)

  40. the lantern shone in the dark, stabbing through the ink like a barb from an angry squid. Probably the same swquid that shot the ink in the first place. Much like that, this lantern beaconed out to any onlookers, not that many were to be found in this area so remote. people looking on weren’t seeing anything but the light anyway.
