<p>Poem.  <br />
<br />
<br />
Comma-like sandy coves.<br />
Wave-washed, rounded rocks.<br />
Rock-pools, teeming with life.<br />
Dreamy vistas to the Sgurr of Eigg<br />
and the familiar, undulating silhouette of Rum.<br />
Dagger-like headlands pierce into the sunlit<br />
beauty of the Hebridean Sea.<br />
The silence is very loud and the calm, evening sunset<br />
soothes any fevered brow......instantly.<br />
Remote, very remote, but all the better for that.<br />
Kentra Bay, Ardtoe, Ardnamurchan.<br />
No words do this place justice.<br />
Be there, see it, feel it.<br />
Words will not suffice, but......<br />
you will know somewhere<br />
very, very special!</p>
