I agree the lighthouse as a metaphor works great. I just love lighthouses in general. They have such a strong presence leading people where they need to be.
Love me some lighthouses--real & imagined--actual & metaphoric. Your quadrille is very effective, conjuring the white light of hope midst the overcast coastal grayness.

I'm the odd one out here. To me a lighthouse is a warning to steer a different path. It is in that way helpful but never a destination.
