IT'S A LONG WAY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: It's a long way the sea-winds blow
Last Line: My dreams forevermore.
Subject(s): Wind


IT'S a long way the sea-winds blow
Over the sea-plains blue, --
But longer far has my heart to go
Before its dreams come true.
It's work we must, and love we must,
And do the best we may,
And take the hope of dreams in trust
To keep us day by day.
It's a long way the sea-winds blow --
But somewhere lies a shore --
Thus down the tide of Time shall flow
My dreams forevermore.
