~ Hebridean Dreams ~
Give me a cottage
anywhere in the Hebrides
share the wonder with me
share the wonder with me
I'm dreaming of desolate beauty
ancient ruins, mountains and rock
the bluest seas and the greenest hills
white sand beaches and flowering machair
a little bit of everything
I have never been here
yet I feel I am coming home
explore the isles in the day with me
sit and watch the wildlife
they are in no hurry either
and in the evenings
keep that wood stove burning
whisper to me in Gaelic
we are all we need
in this wondrous place
and my heart is open.

ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to go... Such a beautiful way to lock a memory. This is a gorgeous poem! I love it
ReplyDeleteI get those dreams completely, feel them myself even if the exact spot differs that feeling of needing to be there is universal
ReplyDeleteYou are the ultimate advocate for this place. Britannia should pay you to promote all its islands.
