This poem is based off a picture of a lighthouse. When I was thinking of a way to write about it, I didn't want it to be boring. I wanted to tell a story and show why a lighthouse is there. I also wanted to have a poem about death and the dark side of nature. Nature poems are always about beauty and serenity. I wanted to change it up. The rhyming of the poem i feel also makes the poem sound better and flow. I really liked this poem. It was a lot easier to write than the others. I thought I wasn't gonna like taking a picture and making it into a poem, but it was actually really nice. It tells a story with such little words and that's what I really like about it.
