We've done these before. Each person adds a line, repeating the previous lines while adding their next one. Limit one line per person per day.
There was a tall beacon in Maine

If I'm correct the 5th line should ryhme with the first two.
So here goes it:
There was a beacon in Maine to which a Foundation laid claim It had weathered many a storm while the keeper inside stayed alert,dry and warm As another ship arrives in the harbour from Spain.

I'm not sure how we continue. Since I ended then last limerick, I'll start the new one.
Yesterday I climbed up a lighthouse that was very tall.

Hope I'm not being a hog with these, but since it's a new day and nobody else started a new one.
From the top of the light I saw a Coast Guard ship.

John you are the naughty man because you keep breaking your own rule of "one line per person per day"! This ain't the scramble where he who solves, in this case, finishes goes next. Anybody can go next or start I'd think as long as they go by the rule?
