Who

Who.

 

Who visits this seductive peninsula

where birds circle un-climbable cliffs

can gasp at waves holing hard granite 

yet seeing field stock shiver in batter 

            of wind will yield to its native history.            

 

Who covets this ocean-coved wilderness

and imagines  caverns where lies hidden

the pastness of gale-sunken ship wrecks

when high-tide gatherings came readied

    for in-drifts might find salient mystery.  

 

Who values this storm-shaken corner

will reason its mere isolation affords

an adventure in sky-scraper freedom

where nature, with non-interference

invites experience of kept simplicity.

 

Who tastes raw beauty could remain 

resistant to more of the same ?
