This place chooses
not to ignore the sea
that gifted its soft sand
upon which footsteps wander
As the waves pound the rocks
the sound colours the voices
of the old Norse raiders
whose longships challenged the surf
While I think of those
who like winter's Goldeneye
make of this place a home
marrying it to their heart
Yes, this place chooses
not to ignore the sea
for it is a breathing artform
sculpted by her hand.
