Lighthouse—sentinel seaside; A welcome sight, steadfast light. To mariners, a true guide; Beacon helping them steer right Whether in high or low tide. Beam of light, helpful at night; Gives sailors a safer ride. Lighthouses help guard the coast, Warn of fog, hazards, and more - Reef or shoal cloaked like a ghost. Small skyscrapers of the shore; Michigan—state with the most Lookout towers during war Other Great Lakes states do host. Lighthouses’ inspiration Shines with versatility, Beyond just navigation - Mix of style, locality, Range, and illumination. Standing with vitality!
