A Little More Poem by Barry Middleton

I need more light in my old blue eyes.
I need more memories and a few more sighs.

So what am I supposed to do?
Light a candle, find a pew?

That's not my style, I look within,
to find the light where dreams begin.

I guess the gods did put it there,
I get no credit, I took the dare.

And so I reach as well I can,
down to the core of one old man.

There's still some light within these eyes,
to search my memories for a few more sighs.
