Beacon

Is it easy to answer
In a yes or a no
How does it hurt you
To say something more?

Like a lighthouse your beacon
Guided ashore
Through stormy dark oceans
Or deep ocean flloors...

Harbored and anchored
Warm, safe and sound
Your shelter your fire
And the new home we found

Yet this day we set sail
Your beacon no more
Devoid of rudders,
denied the oar...
