Lighthouse


Midnight silk draping
extinguishing the gold
flaming brilliant sun

before night unfolds
a pillar rises unmoving
replacing the gold

a light in the dark
gleaming with hope and promise
showing the way home.

    The three haiku work well together to deliver a complete image of the lighthouse.
