Poet of the Dunes | |
Our dune tour continues, and Rob Costa takes a moment to stop the Suburban to tell us a little about Harry Kemp, the "poet of the dunes." Kemp was one of the dune shack inhabitants for a period of about 40 years, and he died there in 1960. Costa recited for us a 1934 poem by Kemp titled, "The Last Return," written for the Coast Guard men who have steadfastly worked to save the lives of those shipwrecked on Cape Cod's coast.
