Steady Friend
Riddle
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
I live a life most sedentary
At times with flashes of brilliance
Though mostly unextraordinary
I can impress with magnificence
I serve you well in your time of need
Though many times I'm quite neglected
After sunset, your good friend indeed
But in the daytime, I'm rejected
Yet this apparent disloyalty
Will not shatter my delicate heart
I'll stand firmly as your guide to see
Through your darkest hour, I'll do my part
What am I?

I thought of 'sleep' at first, although day sleeps are not to be rejected!! Dreams and sleep are good companions. Thanks for writing this, TFF
My pleasure, dalfamnest. Thanks for your feedback!
Good to see some of you keeping it all going ... I've been too busy, but hope to get back soon.

Ah, yes - priorities. I, at least, look forward to more of your high-quality teasers!
I liked this one. I thought of flashlight first, but that isn't sedentary. That led me to a lamp. Good riddle.
