SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 92 by BLISS CARMAN

First Line: THERE'S NOT A LITTLE BOAT, SWEETHEART
Last Line: SO GLAD AS I THIS DAY.
Subject(s): HAPPINESS;
There's not a little boat, sweetheart,
That dances on the tide, --
There's not a nodding daisy-head
In all the meadows wide, --
In all the warm green orchards,
Where bright birds sing and stray,
There's not a whistling oriole
So glad as I this day.
