Life's Lighthouse

A lighthouse stands as our sentinel Guarding our lives from harm's way Let's live our lives being so sensible We won't have to call out our defense To avoid a grand last doomsday. Just let the lighthouse's love commence

Thank you, Andrea, for stopping by and reviewing my poem. I will try to comment on your work sometimes today. My daughter is in the hospital with appendicitis and is to have surgery today. Sara K.

Well done, Sara, on your beautifully written poetry. What vivid imagery! I could almost see myself in that lighthouse.

We all often feel the need of some light or lighthouse while walking towards our destination at some turn of life we face the darkness ? You have beautifully painted that phase by remembering the images of light and love of God? With best wishes always df Sara? Ravindra K Kapoor

It has been hard for me these last 8 months, Ravindra, after my husband's death because he always did certain things in our marriage and I did certain things. I guess you could say we each had our roles for life. I am adjusting but it has been hard, and I can truly say without God as my Lighthouse I don't think I could have made it. Sara K.

A light house is a symbol of hope and safety. Even when life is dark, there's a light house at a distance as a beacon of light for the lost wayfarers. Beautifully written dear Sara.

Yes, Valsa. I do like lighthouses because of what I feel they represent. Your comments are so uplifting. Sara K.
