             Sea-Fever

       John Masefield (1878-1967)

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,

And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;

And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,

And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide

Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;

And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,

And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,

To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;

And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,

And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

nice one, living proof that red squrrels are not confined to the highlands and cumbria

voted I love bluebells. I couldnt help noticing how you spell your name, Im a Mckie and my father is from Dumfries. I dont think Ive ever seen it spelled with 'ee' before. Would you know if the Mckies/Mckees have any connections with any castles in that part of Scotland, apart from Caerlaverock which our ancestors justifiably helped to destroy.

off süperbi parca :) :P
