- August, 1940 THE YOUNG CITIZEN A POEM FOR THIS MONTH I LOVE THE SEA I LOVE the sea, the rolling sea, With mighty breakers pounding; It's on the sea I'd like to be O'er angry billows bounding. ·ti love the sea, the smooth, j calm sea, With waters blue as sky; In a little boat I'd like to ~' float, ..; And watch the ships go ~ by. I'd like a ship, a ship-shape ship. The storms would find me ready; I'd have a crew that's tried and true To steer her straight and steady. I love the sea, the quiet sea, Or sea with billows foaming; On ocean wild, or caltn and mild, I'd love to go a-roaming.
