Return to Uist.

At the terminal in Uig,
waiting in our car,
vehicles in turn disgorge
now its our time to go,

looking out,
a seascape of white horses
what kind of crossing will it be?
southerly, gale force 8,
thats what the forecast says.

On Calmac’s Ferry
Olympic Boxing
holds our attention,
four nail-biting rounds,
Degale snatches Gold!

Arrive in Lochmaddy
a little late, no car in sight
as we weave along the
narrow roads,
our destination, our peace,
our return!

Island Return

Island Return

Making plans,
sorting appointments,
seeking tranquility
solitude & peace.
