A Solitary Lighthouse Poem by Jean Dament

A solitary lighthouse abides by the sea so majestic & oh! so true,
A stronghold for vessels sailing out on the rough waters of the misty blue;
While sounding an alarm to keep sailors from their plight;
And guiding their passage with it's glowing safety of light,
So statuesque beholding tales of woe & liberty,
Always portraying a sense of serenity;
While standing lofty in all it's grandeur & representing a lifetime of relief;
As it reaches out to the tragedy of lost souls; while giving some peace & hope to their grief,
Even lovers find romance atop it's stately silence;
While feeling the miracle of it's steadfast resilence.
