My Lighthouse

An analagous poem for my significant other, Tom

You are my lighthouse,

my beacon of hope,

lighting my way to safe harbor;

warning me of an approaching storm

and its wind tossed waves,

steering me towards shore,

keeping me from a deep, dark grave.

Not too close to the coral,

not too close to the sand;

gently, guiding me in,

gently, taking my hand.

Talk about togetherness, love and reassurance.......this piece encompasses all. short yet deep, the fond color also adds to it some sort of coolness.
