    I love this poem. I grew up around Montauk in Long Island and I always love it when people from the city visit. Yeah, it's annoying when they don't know basic stuff (like the cat, really) but it's cute and heartwarming to think the place where I've lived my whole life and still love today is some vacation or get away for someone else. I guess I take it for granted l

    it's very clear pal, which is, in some places (peaceful ones), you do things just for fun, for relaxation but in other places (like cities or the places people rush to just to make ends meet) people desperately do that same thing but for making a living. In general, Sarah wants to express that Montauk is a very peaceful place, where she feels life 'slows down' everytime she comes there. You're welcome!

Oh yeah Thank you Sarah and who ever else brought her to me cos now she is mine.
