Black cattle and blue water
Mountains and ocean share the same space,
waterfalls exhibit their natural power,
clouds rest just above the crashing waves,
and the sunsets – oh, the sunsets.
“But how could you manage without any cattle?”
Don’t fret. They’re there, too.
With the backdrop of blue water
and crisp air that makes the young ones frolic
was one of the prettiest sights these eyes have ever taken in.
Views like these will leave a girl like me with thoughts of never returning to the mainland.
Whether it’s snowing or sunny, here’s wishing you a wonderful Wednesday,
Laura
