Lighthouse

Surrounded by a treacherous body of water Feeling each wave as they crash against it The possibility of damage from such force Yet standing strong it endures each hit The dark night has a sense of erriness But this structure stands strong and proud Alone in such a mass of water With waves that seem so loud Out of the darkness there's a beam of light A guide for those still out Ensuring they make it back to safety Giving hope and dispelling any doubt So through its solidarity, for many it does provide Bringing comfort while enduring each wave People of the sea admire her strength For all the lives that light beam can save. 24 July 2017
