Wednesday's Words

My good friend, Delores, from The Feathered Nest, gives a six-word challenge every Wednesday.
Use these words in . . . something creative.
It's definitely a challenge.
But so much fun!
This week's words are: blank, trembling, flashlight, shadows, four leaf clover and dashing.
Here is my effort.
P.S. Pop by The Feathered Nest, or Susan at The Contemplative Cat to see what they created!

“Stay in the light,” he said to me.
“When dashing through life’s mystery.
When all’s a blank and lonely sea,
You'll find there's possibility.”
I shine a flashlight from the lee,
The darkness flies, the shadows flee.
And in its lonely beam, I see
The promise of eternity.
For trembling solitarily,
A four-leaf-clover waits for me!
                  * * *
Life's full of possibilities.
You just have to look for them!
