<p>Poem.<br />
<br />
<br />
Two headlands separated by the Atlantic horizon.<br />
Last land for three thousand miles.<br />
This harbour scene is accentuated by the evening sun breaking through and under the rising, grey, ragged cumulus clouds.<br />
<br />
Pink sea thrift on the shore, edges a stony, rocky beach.<br />
Broken grey reflections of rising clouds bear testimony to the heat of the day and merge into a golden beam of evening sunset.<br />
<br />
The sharp, acute, indigo headlands complete the scene.<br />
This warm, balmy summer’s evening encapsulates the wonders of the Isle of Mull – <br />
a beautiful, unspoilt, nature-lover’s paradise.</p>
