The Lighthouse

Always tall and upright

She who knows her worth but chooses to humble herself and standards for better living and accommodation.

She is a direction for a dark path, the light that leads home. She guides you to safe ends and assures you comfort that the storm you are in will not kill you.

Scholars would define her as "A red and white building that stands alone near the shore, raining or sunny the lights are always on" and indeed that is who she is. To her the shore represented a place of mediation, her peace was hearing the sea breeze and dipping her foot in and out of the water shouting "Aah!! cold cold cold" with a beautiful happy face and smile.

She stands and says, "I am not a glass of water, but of British whisky nor a holiday vacation but a home."

Still Is

Forever Will

Be a lighthouse for others, her light shines brighter even with tears in her eyes.
