My husband and I recently visited York, ME and I just fell in love with the area and especially the very picturesque, much-photographed Nubble Lighthouse.
It's begging for a beautiful poem, don't you think?
One that is...
short, (10-30 lines or so)
succinct but powerful
full of imagery
and other poetic device.
Let the photo (yes, I took it with my simple little digital camera) inspire you and write something beautiful!

I am glad that you've seen this one, too. I was a lighthouse paparazza--couldn't stop snapping pictures of it.
