Isle of Jura

Jura is a small but beautiful island and well worth a visit. The food at the hotel is second to none and the people are very kind.
I wrote this poem as a tribute to Jura.
Isle of Jura
Jura`s the land where the sun always shines
In the heart of the people so loving and kind.
Though they`ve known hardship and faced many a foe
They pick up the pieces and get up and go.
At Craighouse on Tuesdays they all come and meet,
Have a chat and some music and something to eat.
As they look pit the window accross to the bay
They let all their worries and care fly away.
If you catch the ferry at Port Askaig pier
As you sail o`er the sound you`ll see plenty of deer.
They feed with the cattle on this bonny isle
And if you want to see them just tarry a while.
There`s Jura`s walled gardens with flaura so rare,
Nothing else in the world could ever compare.
The wild Corrievrecken ehich swirls round the shore,
Holds us in suspense as we hear the folklore.
Then there`s the Small Isles which hold you entranced
As you watch the waves beating you`ll see sea horses dance.
The Paps are majestic and capture your heart.
If you come to Jura, you`ll never depart.
Thanks to all the hard work of everyone here
We`ll soon have a care home not far from the pier.
