The Call
I am drawn inexorably back to the sea.
I love living in the Highlands, rambling freely through the heather-clad glens, breathing the clear mountain air.
Yet I must return to the coast.
To be tempted once more by the siren’s call.
I heard a siren call when I was walking on the beach just now – unfortunately, it was just a police car!
Police cars on the beach?
Here we just have guys selling ice cream
Dear CE,
Beautifully descriptive, poetic and evocative.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you, m’lady
Every seaside has a siren’s call all its own, so hard to ignore.
For some of us, quite impossible
Those siren calls are hard to resist, but then so are the Highlands 🙂
It must be the undulations, Iain!
N’écoute pas le chant de la sirène !
Mais comme elle est belle!
La beauté est éphémère !
La vie aussi est éphémère !
