Slightly rusted and corroded from the crashing waves, elegant and tall. each window and opening is lined with a bronze trim.  Some gears can be seen turning along the side, rotating a middle section of the light house.
Enchanted light house, Shore
rat
lizards
I'm a lizard. I live in the forest. You can usually find me near the creek, because that's where the bugs are. My tongue is long, and I eat insects all day. My only fear is of larger predators like falcons and human children.
What brings a rat this close to the sea?  I was scurrying about the dark and saw the light in the distance. I'm quite hungry and was hoping there would be heaps of crumbs but instead only lizards and rust. I long to be back in the pantry, cleaning up after that clumsy chef drops food under tables.
