When the island is dry and dusty, we long for Summer rain to water the trees, plants and flowers. Here is an excerpt of a poem I wrote last Summer
Summer Rain
Summer rain brings relief to all,
From heat and dust as droplets fall.
A vibrant rainbow adorns the sky,
An arching spectrum, way up high.
Steamy air ascends and climbs,
Creative mist in swirling lines.
Leaves and petals, luminous and bright,
Glowing so fresh, an alluring sight.
A rich sweet fragrance fills the air,
A priceless perfume, could not compare.

The Isle of Skye has dramatic mountains, wild glens and amazing seascapes; it offers a varied wilderness for free spirits. There is an abundance of hidden places full of native trees, wildflowers and wildlife to enjoy, in peace and tranquility. This sensational Island changes constantly through the seasons, with wild Atlantic storms, snowy mountains and balmy Summer nights with spectacular skies. The Summer wildflowers provide a colourful feast for insects, which feed the many species of songbirds, both native and Summer visitors.
