Skerryvore

Title:     Skerryvore
Author: Robert Louis Stevenson [More Titles by Stevenson]

For love of lovely words, and for the sake
Of those, my kinsmen and my countrymen,
Who early and late in the windy ocean toiled
To plant a star for seamen, where was then
The surfy haunt of seals and cormorants:
I, on the lintel of this cot, inscribe
The name of a strong tower.

[The end]
Robert Louis Stevenson's poem: Skerryvore
