To me a lighthouse represents peace and tranquility, a place to reflect on life. Somewhere to be in perfect harmony with nature, to forget the world's hostilities. A symbol of a simpler life and simpler times when life wasn't fast paced, when people took time to stop and smell the roses. This is my place ... my "Beacon of Light"...anyone is welcome. Use your imagination and think of waves lapping on the rocks, the sounds of gulls. The beautiful, haunting sound of the foghorn ... the light, always lit, always searching. Leave your cellphones, your palm pilots, your televisions behind. There is nothing as wonderful as sitting before a roaring fireplace, taking a walk at sunrise, or reading a book on the pier as the sunsets. Like anything in life there will be storms, something we all weather but in here we weather them together.

So welcome ... I'm Cookie, your lighthouse keeper ... come in and leave your troubles at the door.

Sometimes my life is dark, empty, and foreboding
Like a ship in the night out at sea
But you are there for me
You are the tower of strength that I rely on.

Sometimes I'm sad and alone
Like the captain at the wheel, wanting to be home
But you are there for me
You shine your bright light for me to reach out to

Sometimes I'm confused, not sure what to do
Like the seaman who looses his way in the fog
But you are there for me
Your voice tells me the right direction.

Sometimes life is as rough as the uncaring sea
It causes panic, frustration, and despair
But you are there for me
A quiet entity on the edge of a rugged cliff.

You are my beacon, my lighthouse.
 
The Lighthouse Lullabye
Lay down your head and close your eyes
and rest your weary soul,
For the lighthouse shines through fog, and rain,
and night as black as coal!
Though winds are lashing and waves are crashing
on coral reefs below,
The beacons calls and beckons all
with its majestic beam aglow.
When stars are out and seas are calm
and eventide draws nigh -
The seafarer rocks in a cradle of waves
to The Lighthouse Lullabye.
- unknown -
 
Good Luck

Hi I see you got a new thread,so I stopped by to wish you good Luck with it :) ~~~~;) :kiss: :D ~~~~~ from Ling
 
Hi there Cookiebaby..............((((hugggggsssssss)))) and :kiss:'s

I heard your call, and saw your light searching for me through the mists and low lying clouds.......

It drew me to this place you call your "Beacon Of Light"......so very apt......so calm......a faint crash of the waves hitting the rocks around your tower of safety......the gulls calling in the cold sky......so very inviting.....so welcoming........so very you.

I feel at home here.....in complete and utter comfort.....my troubles and fears seem to float away with the mist......I am at ease here.......

:heart:Yours, and always will be, Your Maleman:heart:
 
Dedicated to our lighthouse keeper

LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER'S
TRIBUTE

Stubbornness is often said
To be a trait we all should dread.
Sometimes though it's plain to see
It watches over you and me.
Look at the beauty a lighthouse gives
Brightening shores where 'ere you live.
We take for granted that pretty sight
When seen by day, but what by night?

Storms roll in to blast the shore
And seem the worst when people snore.
When most people go to bed
There still is a lot to be said.

Lighthouse keepers look up to skies of gray.
Storm clouds make the moon go away.
Sea's roll in, smashing water high
As if raining upward into the sky.

Temperatures fall, making water ice.
All burrow in, even the mice.
Ice coats sidewalks, catwalks, rails,
Windows and foghorn, stopping the mails.

When pea soup fog came rolling in
Engines were cut amid foghorns' din.
Flu season be damned, they went about
Assuring their horn's mighty shout.

Summer, winter, spring and fall
Regardless of weather, through it all
Lighthouse keepers tended lights and horn.
From all dangers, strangers were warned.

Anonymous lighthouse keepers kept the watch
Whether healthy or well, battening the hatch.
Lesser men couldn't take what they got
But lighthouse keepers were a stubborn lot.

More men would have died, and women too,
If lighthouse keepers relied on brew.
Instead they faithfully kept light and horn
Through the night and into the morn.

Their faith in God and service to man
Stand many times taller than
The tallest lighthouse tower you see
As a tower of power for you and me.

So while you pass a lighthouse tower
Think of behind the scene power
Of a stubborn man braving nature's fury
Protecting strangers, no favor to curry.

Loneliness broken by wife and kids,
To some it would be hitting the skids.
Lighthouse keepers stayed firm on the rock,
Sometimes with a boat on the dock.

Lighthouse keepers were saving souls
By light, horn, and boat, what 'ere nature doles.
Thanks were anonymous as sailors passed by
But better than, than for sailors to die.

The Lighthouse Service filled a great need.
Motivated by service, never by greed.
Though they reached the end of their time
It would positively be a crime.

If we didn't take the time to say
"Thank you for being there night and day.
As you retire and take your rest
Know your example was of man's best."

We kids who lived in lights with you
Could see firsthand all you do,
Your coping with every kind of strife
Taught we kids how to deal with life.
