WIND SONG by LUCIA PEARL BOORNAZIAN

First Line: CAST MY HEART UP ON YOUR BARREN SHORES
Last Line: DASH THE TINGLING SPRAY OVER ME.
Subject(s): SEA; SINGING & SINGERS; SPRING; WIND; OCEAN; SONGS;

Cast my heart up on your barren shores.
Mingle it with cleansing foam
And the blue reflection of Spring skies.
Bring it back to me . . .
You who carried it far out to sea.
Give it back . . . That it may beat for me
The raging of the storm when the rains pour . . .
Let the placid waves of a moonlit night
Roll over me . . .
Oh heart of the sea . . .
Oh wanderer . . .
Dash the tingling spray over me.
