A Way Of Life

Lost in a land of mist and fog - no signal to be found on the car radio
in the land of bent-over trees and hedgerows 
blow the land of Atlantic gales
the land of bursting summer roads
of strange tounge-twisting place names 
a language
culture and history
a land of former industries
huge holes dug in the ground 
giant spoil heaps reaching to its skies
inspiration for the spoken word of theatre and film
writers and poets.
Painters
photographers and illustrators and are stirred by its long stunning beaches
whose waves draw the worlds surfers to them
a land of sand
harbours
moorlands
tors
open countryside to walk
wildlife to seek
ancient sites to discover 
and clear blue waters to swim in.

This is not a place - but a way of life!
What more do you need
...than Cornwall?
