Black Ledge Lighthouse - Week 29 - The Book of Days

The week29 theme for my Book of Days was Black Ledge Lighthouse.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.30.

The master index for all of my entries is here.

I took some poetic license with this. The map in the background is of the Groton / New London Connecticut area. The New London Ledge Light is allegedly haunted, but it doesn't look like the lighthouse image I used for my art piece.

So, we'll go no more a roving
So late into the night,
Though the heart be still as loving,
And the moon be still as bright.

For the sword outwears its sheath,
And the soul wears out the breast,
And the heart must pause to breathe,
And love itself have rest.

Though the night was made for loving,
And the day returns too soon,
Yet we'll go no more a roving
By the light of the moon.

So We'll Go No More a Roving By Lord Byron (George Gordon)
