By kathleen Scheinberg
See yourself as I see you
Fetching the smile
From my heart
That lightens my eyes
Glance a moment at that fair face
That judges not, nor feigns a
Friendship of pious deceit that
Tightens the lips
Witness now how strength
Reflects life, courageous in
Teaching and wresting
Truth from lie
Ahoy, sailor, the Bosun's whistle
Blows. Hoist the sails and
Listen to the sea that
Mirrors the souls of you and me
See yourself as I see you
Fetching the smile
From my heart
That lightens my eyes
Glance a moment at that fair face
That judges not, nor feigns a
Friendship of pious deceit that
Tightens the lips
Witness now how strength
Reflects life, courageous in
Teaching and wresting
Truth from lie
Ahoy, sailor, the Bosun's whistle
Blows. Hoist the sails and
Listen to the sea that
Mirrors the souls of you and me
