Hilbre
Remote idyllic islands without a single car
Anywhere you would wish to go, is not so far
Narrow causeway walked to get on the place
Bird watching, life taken at a much slower pace
Those venturing here in nature’s celebration
Time spent here like one condensed vacation
Only a few hours to be enjoyed, yet never a bore
Visitors see this a small price, for the island they adore
Little Eye, Middle Eye and Hilbre in the River Dee
Conservation so perfect I want to make a heartfelt plea
These wonderful islands as a microcosmic role model
Scale up their template across the Earth to remodel
New focuses, new priorities, new ways of being
From the insanity of pollution everyone be freeing
Ecologically founded true global community
All nations living ecologically in perfect unity
