THE FORGOTTEN LIGHT-HOUSE. . . BY DICK PONTIN
Let there be light
Can't, it don't work anymore
Here is an old lighthouse fading away
No more light will shine any day
At night ships depended upon it's light
So their ship did not end up a horrible sight
Lighthouse keepers use to work and live inside
They ensured that light worked and showed their pride
Then I guess satellites took their place
Now this structure is a total disgrace
Things of the past are slowly fading away
As new inventions replace them every day
How much longer before they take our place
And we are left in utter disgrace
