lyrics

DAWN ON THE GLADYS MARRIE

The fog rolls gently in, the gulls cry keen
and he gives dull earth the slip, aboard Gladys Marrie.

Wrapped 'round in filmy veil, kissed and slapped by sea
he glides in pearly still, a dory brave is she…
Yes, it’s dawn, Gladys Marrie.

The sun on deep salt brine, melts mist to sea
'Neath the waves the silvers shine, below Gladys Marrie.

The jetty riffs and strains against fresh’ning seas,
Breasting waves trapp’d twixt rock arms, a dory strong is she…
Yes, like his own, Gladys Marrie.

O how she darts forth quickly. How she delights in the breeze!
And when the ocean roughens... She sails calm and sturdy
like his own Gladys Marrie.

~ Mary Elizabeth (Haynes) Lee
April, 1985
