The light houses are a wonder and I am in awe of the people who lived in them. Some of the pictures you see and the storms that have brewed around them are fantastic. One in particular where a helicopter is taking a picture and the guy closed the door before a gigantic wave hits . Wish I could remember where I seen that picture. Love the write. Phyl

Smile ~ I love the metaphor and symblance perhaps I believe that one may find amid this lovely reflection of what, "Your Beautiful Eyes," they do see ~ this guardian it seems watching over their charge of children and possibly fellow lights we shall say; albeit my own humbled reflections found within this brilliant canvas' colours of creation "My 'Dear, Precious & Beautiful Sharon Ruebel!!!'" ~ cont:)
