An Ode to St.
Ninian’s Isle
Time passes
Memories fade
Dust collects
On untold treasures
No more people to
plunder
No more Vikings to
invade
Yet you remain the
same
St. Ninian’s Isle
A breakwater
against
The fierce North
Sea
Waves still crash
Winds still howl
Shetland ponies
still balk and bite
At the sight
Of your shoreline
May you remain the
same
St. Ninian’s Isle
Until the elements
melt
At the very end
Of this world
Then may you be
recreated
St. Ninian’s Isle
As a haven in warm
waters
May your green
grasses grow
May your cool
streams flow
Basking in the
glory
Of the Son

I think I could spend some time there...I wouldn't mind it at all! As long as I had enough warm clothes; some good music and my two furry, four-legged mates who think they are humans, anyway! Oh! And some food, too..perhaps even some fish and chips! :)
