There was that sound,
Like a silken web it surrounded me
In such golden beauty,
Pulling me deeper and deeper
Down into its glory and wonder.
I was lost in that sound’s world,
Into a place where satisfaction reigned,
Showing me that all was well
And my life was beautiful.
I would go on in peace and love
Even when that time came,
When I said farewell,
Farewell to Stromness.
