The Land Where I Live
I live in a land where the small boats sail
Far out in the ocean with ease.
I live in a land where the wind and the gale
Has buried large ships in the sea.
I live in a land where the sun shines so warm
And the sky is so very blue.
I live in a land where the ice and snow storms
Keep us buried the whole winter through.
I live in a land where the forest has trees
Whose leaves turn to gold in the fall.
I live in a land where the rocks that we see
Offer no sign of life at all.
I live in a land where the fresh clean air,
Has kept us both healthy and wise.
I live in a land where the fog horns we hear
When the mist has rolled down from the skies.
I live in a land of so many extremes
That sometimes I ask myself this.
I wonder if God, through creating his dream,
Just gave Newfoundland all the rest.
