Strength In Storms

waves crash mist and spray touch upon lighthouse's strong walls.. lights steadily warn lightkeeper's sturdy rock home filled with light warmth love.. unharmed as storm passes delphiniums bloom their gauze blossoms withstand storm.. strength in featherweight Sponsor: Gail Doyle Contest: A Scenery Of Your Choice As An Artist July 15, 2012
