My Chandelier

have a funky chandelier;

It has a country theme.

From next to barnyard animals, 

The light’s supposed to beam.


Four candelabra bulbs it has,

Each 40 watts, but though

The cow’s and sheep’s and pig’s all work,

The horse’s bulb won’t glow.


For more than 30 years, it’s hung

Above the same old table,

But some connection’s broken and

To fix it, I’m not able.


Some handymen have tried and failed -

No one with intuition 

Or knowledge that will do the trick -

I need an electrician.


They don’t make house calls and since I

Can’t take it down, I guess,

I’ll have to just get used to

Having light, but somewhat less.
