It Sits on Block Island, a beacon of light It flashes on and off day and night Like the red sun at night, it's a sailor's delight What is it?

It's a big old house at the edge of the sea Owned by the wealthy, turn of the century There's a billiards room, pool balls on the walls What is it?

If you go there, you're taken by surprise Animals everywhere of all shapes and sizes Jackie Kennedy was a debutante there What is it? Where is it?

Speaking of animals not in a cage The festival of lights there is all the rage Half price admissions in January What is it?

Finally, there's a place to eat Popular in summer and a little offbeat Take the road there and you hit a dead end What is it?
