My Earrings from Skye
My earrings from the Isle of Skye
Got complimented twice
And though I wear them for myself,
Acknowledgement is nice.
A local Scottish artist
Finds the sea glass on the beach
And forms it into shapes, at prices
In most tourists’ reach.
The ones I bought are silver
And they look like dangling fish
Filled with colors to resemble
What they’d look like as they’d swish.
But the best part when I wear them’s
Not attention to their style;
It’s the memory of being there
On that delightful isle.
