  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • Gary and the Lighthouse (part 9/9)

    (Continued from 8/9)

    The wicked witch feel hard,
    her body become emotionless
    by falling from the very high of
    the lighthouse-
    Gary observed
    silently from the abyss.

    Thus Gary remembered
    all those fables from his
    grandmother,
    as the stories of his
    entire life
    passes by his eyes.

    When he realized that
    the wicked witch is no more,
    he slowly climb down
    the stairs,
    and thanked
    wholeheartedly,
    the old lighthouse-
    that saved him too
    along with many many
    other souls
    throughout the century.

    To Gary,
    the old lighthouse
    remains as the symbol of
    courage, strength and
    inspiration-
    as he became old,
    he used to tell these stories
    to his grandchildren, and
    his grandchildren would tell them to
    their grandchildren,
    while the old lighthouse
    remains as the lone witness.

    (End- shortened.)

    (Pure fiction.
    Any similarity should be treated as mere coincidence.)
