Written for SenHai Saturday where our host
Susi asks us to write a senryu and haiku
using this image as inspiration.

Senryu
lighthouse has one job ….
outshining the whole sunset
just by staying lit
⌘ ⌘ ⌘
Haiku
Dusk bruises the sky ….
one steady light keeps standing
against the dark tide

This is “Lighthouse” by Hawkwind
Everything on The Elephant’s Trunk was created by me unless indicated otherwise. Thank you for your consideration. NAR©2017–present.
These are gorgeous, Nancy. I enjoyed the instrumental, too.
