Mathew Welch (September 1988 / Canada)
Poems by Mathew Welch : 5 / 7
The Lighthouse
Into the night like a cold staring eye
It lights the way for the crew
Up on the cliff it sits so high
Creating safe passage and view
All through the night
Into the harbour the ship lays at rest
Unscratched and afloat
The work of the house was at its best
To give guidance to the tiny boat
In the dark, it was the light
