quiet
dawn.
I'll
m'.:.s
the
salt
air
and
the
likeable
people,
I'll
miss
the
soft
bree?e
and
the
ra
n
on
my'
fare.
Oh,
yes,
there
Is
rain,
there's
peat
and
there's
muskeg,
And
skunk-cabbage
too.
It's
a
wonderiul
place!
There
are
gales
and
wind-storms
with
angry
waves
dashing
The
beats
as
they're
moored
to
the
docks
and
the
shore.
The
weather-man
warns,
and
the
radios
signal
"Run
for
a
cove,
or
you'll
be
sailing
no
more",
But
it's
all
in
a
fisherman's
life,
it's
expected
The
danger,
adventure,
success
and
loss,
-And
he'll
not
tiarie
with
you
if
you
ask
his
opinion,
He
likes
it
out,
there
and
he'll
be
his
own
boss.
I'll
m'ss
thc
wet
smell
of
gum-boo's
and
slickers,
The
vifw
from
Eleventh,
the
fog-horns
at
dawn,
All
the
odd,
lunny
things
that
tug
at
your
heart-strings,
'ni;
things
that'you
n;ver
think
of
till
you're
gone-How
well
I'll
remember
the
blue
of
the
harbor,
Thc
blue
of
the
mountains,
the
blue
of
the
sky,
I'll
tal
c
a
deep
breath
and
I'd
wish
I
was
back
there,
.
I'm
h(inc-;icK
already.
But
I
hope
I
don't
cry.
