A Kept Ode

Lighthouse
shines reflective sea lapping
rocks plus skipping a house mouse.

Stoic
structured aperture aiding
scarred fought homeless heroic.

Sullen
elements outstretched expanse
points a critter to lull in.

Manmade
contraption whirrs about as
a little varmint evade.

Compass 
nils bearing takes point
unexpected practices.

Keeper
mermaid purged surging wave,
tempt failed, saves a dreamer.
