#NapodpoMo 6/30 Reading Poetry: “Sea Fever” by John Masefield
You hear John Masefield reading his poem
“Sea Fever
day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
“Sea Fever
day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go 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
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
