That's an excellent presentation and a truly beautiful nonet. The photo makes it more visible. I love poems about things which are not familiar, like the usefulness of a lighthouse. Your choice of words is perfect and conveys very well the message.
Great job!

I just wanted to tell you this was my favourite poem in the nonet contest. In a way, the words "Majestic, treacherous, raging" remind me of a wave of the sea.

Great choice of the image....
And, it appears you did the Nonet correctly...
Also, your font worked very well.
Loved the thoughts your poem provoked.

These old lighthouses have saved the day for many ships and lives. It reminds me of a song dedicated to Christ of how He is the lighthouse who shows the way. You did well with this.

Your nonet fits the format perfectly, and I enjoyed it. I never thought about light houses making sure people don't sleep. Are you referring to the sailors or those living near the lighthouse? You might clarify that. Could go either way, I suppose.
Nice job.

I never thought of it going either way. I was actually referring to the crew. Correction coming up.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I enjoyed your nonet which reads smoothly and evocatively. In fact the whole presentation is very atmospheric and slightly haunting. One thing I would say (and I have just read another nonet) is that your capitals at the beginning of each line should go and that would in turn create an even better sense of fluidity. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Thanks for your review. I was a little unsure about the caps, never know whether to keep them or not.
