A rugged coastal path.

Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why?

Mountainโ€™s are inspiring

With panoramic views.

Iโ€™m up for scenic cable cars

But not that keen to ski.


I will not dangle from a rope

Or freeze too happily

So have to say that all in all

The mountains arenโ€™t for me.


Iโ€™m more a fan of beaches

But can only take so much

The sun and sea relaxing

But I have to take a book.


Sometimes itโ€™s just perfect

Soaking up the sun.

I can be a beach bum

Every now and then.


But I am not a swimmer

And I donโ€™t go in the sea.

I love the sounds and watching waves

But donโ€™t go in the sea.


And so the rugged coastal path

Is where Iโ€™d rather be.

With all the sounds of wind and waves

But changing scenery.


My life will not be threatened

Itโ€™s not a mountain side

I am up and active

Yet still beside the sea.
