inspired by Michael's, "Who Will Switch Off The Lights When It Dies"




We Are The Lighthouse ~ Poetbay's Hope

And as we cling together--
The poetry and the prose--
We will hold the light forever
As we tend to the beauty of this rose.

From the voices of many,
There comes a sound so pure
That the ears of those who have any
Will know we can endure.

In a community joined in union,
There is strength of purpose for all.
So let us share in our communion
Though storms may rise and fall.

Through these bonds of friendship,
We will stay the course and sail
O'er waves of poetic kinship
And guide our ship without fail.

For all of us are defining
Just what this place can be.
Let's keep the lighthouse shinning
As a refuge for our poetry.

from your Rose of Albany
to, you, the hero of my heart,
let's continue to write our poetry 
my love I do impart.

I know, and I believe in 'Us'!
and I am sure. we will be together, come whatever may!
Though I have been a little elusive lately, but Poetbay is my home.
I have the oldest and closest friends here and I love them and know that they will be there for me no matter how long are the gaps between my coming and going...
((Hugs to all my friends here on the bay!))
Love,
Zoya

Yes, a lighthouse it truly is.

I've been hiding in the dark, and what joy to come back to this!
