Nimmo's Pier
Galway, Galway, Ireland

Strangers exchange pleasantries and share a moment of peace at the end of Nimmo's pier.

Neither Out Far, Nor in Deep

The people along the sand
All turn and look one way
They turn their back on the land
They look at the sea all day.

As long as it takes to pass
A ship keeps raising its hull;
The wetter ground like glass
Reflects a standing gull.

The land may vary more;
But wherever the truth may be
The water comes ashore,
And the people look at the sea.

They cannot look out far.
They cannot look in deep.
But when was that even a bar
To any watch they keep?
