Sea-Feverby John Masefield
I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face and a grey dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tideIs a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls
crying.
I must down to the seas again to the vagrant gypsy life.To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a
whetted knife;And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
