As I contentedly lay back in my dory, with my arms lazily outstretched I feel Peggy's Cove's cool breath, and the fine mist of the ocean on my breast God's hand came down from the Heavens long ago, to fashion out this paradise for man And as I draw in the intoxicating aroma, of baked beans and bacon, it was to the cabin I ran Grandma was in the kitchen, and Grandpa was in the back chopping wood If I could spend the rest of my life in Newfoundland, there is no doubt in my mind if I could With all its magnificence and glory, the good Lords work must be praised For this Island I have called home for so long, this land where I was raised. For my wife and her loving family who are all islanders.

Hello Nick! :-) I enjoyed reading that poem. You are talented in this area. Cheers! LaNell

Hi LaNell ! I cannot begin to tell you what a special person you are. There is no doubt why you have so many friends. People like you just make life a whole lot easier - God Bless You And Your Loved Ones - Peace

Hello Nick, This is lovely. I have heard how beautiful Newfoundland is. Almost makes me wish I lived there. Kindest regards, Luella May and John Elliott, aka Oaky Wood

Hi Luella May and John. Myself and the wife were there last month for a week and stayed with her parents. I have never walked so much and taken in so much beauty in that one week than I have in maybe 10 years which was the last time I was down there. The Island is beautiful as are the people.
