My Beacon Poem by Gemma Heaney

Like a beacon in the night
U come rescue me
Because you are the only light
that I can see
Through storms and high waters
you will come to me
To save me from this drowning sea
You are the only one
I see in my dreams
You are the only one
who can set me free

the crashing waves form like a band of white horses
forming a line across the coast ready to charge towards shore
the Ocean holds many moods
angry, calm, unsettled
it holds a life of it’s own
with many beneath & above

we seek new & foreign lands
were there are many trinkets to be found
we explore and encounter many beautiful things
with all this a smile & the happiness it brings


When there is darkness aboard our vessel on these waters
u give me light
when my eyes are closed
you hold me close pull me in by your side
We can hear the whales sing deep below
& the ocean calmly whispers at our ships bow

with your loving arms
and tender smile
I would sail with you
for a thousand miles
I could gaze at the stars forever more
As long as we are together
We will always reach the shore
