Outer Hebrides

One Hundred Nineteen Islands

there must be one perfect for me

though I do love my island here

where I still have contact with

many I love who also love me

Escape always sounds free

not fraught with various misery

but, misery can spring up

like a sponge collecting water

anywhere at all

It is within that we escape it

it takes desire  discipline and

courage, I don’t need to go to

The Outer Hebrides, I can just

stay home, relax and enjoy
