The Lighthouse

In flashes of beam lights

It provides lifelines

To see they wreck not;

The boats at sea.

And the sea itself glowed

In its golden light.

But only the lighthouse knows

How lonely it is...

It can never get close

Neither with the sea that surrounds

Nor with the boats that have

A life in its light.

Alone it stands

Quite tall and fair

Silent and forlorn

In solitude......
