Fair Winds
Fair Winds <br /> <br /> <br /> Fair winds they are a blowing <br /> Fair winds across the bay<br /> Blowing from the West<br /> Fair winds they are at their best<br /> <br /> Only yesterday the squalls were here<br /> With dark clouds scudding north to south<br /> Wreaking havoc along our coast<br /> Certainly something we dont care to boast<br /> <br /> These late autumn days a prelude to<br /> The harsh days of winter on their way<br /> And let us now for fair weather hope<br /> To call upon us so we can cope <br /> <br /> And keep them safe through winter storms <br /> Our sons and fathers at their work<br /> Keep safe those small boat fishermen brave<br /> Who daily toil upon the wave<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> John Cornick<br /> Halifax, Nova Scotia<br /> <br /> <br /> Submitted By: John Cornick
