If you have been following the journey of my poem "Message from the Lighthouse Keepers" from free verse to rhyme to lyric, I thought you might like to see the final version. The music has been finished by my wonderful husband, and hopefully at some point I will have a recording to share.
On the shore of our hearth
And hearts you washed up.
And our home became your home
And kept you safe for awhile.
Chorus:
When you're lost out in the storm
The light will still be on
Through high winds and tide and foam
Till you are safe again.
When you're lost out in the storm
The light will still be on
Through high winds and tide and foam
Till you are home again.
It was nothing that you did
Storms crashed around you,
Washed you away from us
Nothing we could do.
Chorus
