(ABOVE) An arriving ferry brings passengers from Fire Island back to the mainland – Sayville, NY – May 26, 2014
A barrier island on the south shore of Long Island
It moves, it sways, it rolls, it conveys
A message of warmth in distant land
Underneath the sun amidst fine sugary sand
People converge with gaiety and spontaneity
Lots of food and wine, entertainment divine
Nature connects and human lives intersect
A peaceful retreat, on faraway land, oh how sweet…
