Holland Harbor Lighthouse

 

Holland Harbor Lighthouse by Kristina_5

who spread out the earth upon the waters,
His love endures forever.
who made the great lights—
His love endures forever.
the sun to govern the day,
His love endures forever.

Psalm 136: 6-8

Cape Willoughby Lighthouse


Cape Willoughby Lighthouse
by `◄ccdoh1►

He gives us hope to live,
He gives us the power to fight,
When we fall,
He shall pick us up,
Then watch us rise,

He is Unwritten Soul.
He is simply,
A beacon of light.

From: Beacon Of Light by Sam S.Slait

The word of the sweetest song, and all songs,
That strong and delicious word which, creeping to my feet,
The sea whisper’d me.

Autumn at Castle Hill Lighthouse

 

Autumn at Castle Hill Lighthouse, Newport, RI, 2008 by Christopher Wisker – Northeastern Travels

I cried over beautiful things knowing no beautiful thing lasts.

The field of cornflower yellow is a scarf at the neck of the copper
sunburned woman, the mother of the year, the taker of seeds.

The northwest wind comes and the yellow is torn full of holes,
new beautiful things come in the first spit of snow on the northwest wind,
and the old things go, not one lasts.

Autumn Movement by Carl Sandburg

Fresnel Fog

 

Fresnel Fog by T & N Politi

The fog comes
on little cat feet.

It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.

From: Fog by Carl Sandburg

This Way To The Lighthouse

Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom,
Lead thou me on!
The night is dark, and I am far from home,–
Lead thou me on!
Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene,–one step enough for me.

From: Lead, Kindly Light by John Henry Newman

Martian Lighthouse

If Mars had
Some gas
We’d go there
En masse
To fill up our
Tanks
And enrich the
Banks-
But so far there aren’t even
Bugs
Let alone any dinosaur
Sludge!

Ditty on Mars by M.L. Squier
