THE HAUNTED LIGHTHOUSE

Looming in the distance
Tall and rising high
Far across the river
Eerily touching the sky.

As old folks tell its tale
A tale so old as time
Set with winds and gales
On one stormy night.

T’was told it was a romance
A love the father scorned
Between his daughter, a dashing young man
Their hearts were nearly torn.

The boy had loved his lady
Father threw him out
But nothing could be done, they loved already
Forbidden love pursued.

When Father left for town
The damsel rushed to row
The boat, she knew, led to the place
The lighthouse she did go.

Her suitor watched her go
Through the glassy window
He ran and ran; he ran to sail
Amidst the rain and gales.

But fate held its upper hand
Lightning struck the man
He screamed and cried
And fell and died
And lay still all the time.

The girl rushed out with vigour
To meet her suitor’s hands
But she saw his lifeless figure
And shock killed her at once.

Then the bats all flew around
Until the two were found
Their hands were clasped; locked in grip
Their bodies intertwined.

Up till this very day
The bats have never been away
The lovers’ voices are always heard
Their very final words.
