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.
