Songs of Amelia: Poetry inspired by the beaches of Amelia Island - Paperback

by Jean Vincennes (Author)

Poems inspired by the beaches of Amelia Island, Florida. The Isle of Eight Flags, Amelia has a resplendent history, spectacular views, friendly people, and dog-friendly streets. It is here, and perhaps only here, that you will find dolphins and whales in the surf, sand dunes as towering as the tales of her half millennia of history; a history rich in peoples of all colors and creeds, nestled alongside the quiet peace of dogs dozing in restaurants, on her streets, or frolicking on her beaches. Come visit Fernandina, American, and Summer beaches through these inspiring poems of peace and joy. Or, better yet, read the poems and come see for yourself
