Cape Cod

From a distance a lighthouse horn blows
The mist settles in, fishermen do not go 
A beacon light gleams and attracts 
Sights and sounds, from a warning tract.
 
From a distance, harbor lights in a row
Tides smooth over, ripples are low
Seagulls landing, shells lie about
This must be Cape Cod no doubt

Very nice picture your words painted - a picture that includes imagery for all my senses in a New England capture! Poetry hugs ... CayCay
