And everyone smiled and cried with
Joy as the cool waters of Mother
Ocean refreshed them.
"Just suppose" said one of the
waves who had wandered of, that
we had never come back! We would
have been so unhappy and we wouldn't
have been of the slightest use. Here
is where we can do our part on the
long. hot days and when II is cold we
can rest and play and laugh and sing
Of all the Joy we give when II Is
warm"
Home" said another one Of the
waves, "hOme. ocean home, Is the
place for the waves and let every
one hear our story so those who may
think that they must 90 out into the
world and over the earth In order to
be great and fine and in order to be
happy will hear that II is at home that
they can be greatest giving simple
happiness TO many"
Mother Ocean gave great ball that
night. The wind came and danced
and sang. the waves all danced, the
sea-sheIIs laughed and sang and
through It all Mother Ocean kept
smiling and singing 10 herself:
Away from home,
They wanted to roam,
Away from the ocean deep.
And | did not say No,
But let them go.
Though mary salt tears did l weep.
But now they are home.
They no longer will roam,
Away from the ocean deep.
And they will say NO
II l suggest that they go.
so now l can sing ana not weep.
And ever since that day none Of the
waves have ever wanted to leave their
Mother Ocean to adventure over the
earth. And If you will listen to them
as they are having their make-believe
fights with the rocks or having a
great old argument with Mr.. Wind or
playing hide-and-gO-seek with the Mist
Grandchildren you will notice that
their voices are glad and gay and mer-
~ and that they do not sound as
though they wanted to leave the
ocean.
And they sound as though they so
much enjoyed their ocean life.
If ever any other waves grow tired
they ask to hear old Mother Oceans
story of the adventures of the waves
who left the ocean; and when the
story is over they sing to Mother
Oceans great delight this song:
Away from home.
Wen never roam,
Wen always happy be.
For the deep blue sea,
Is the place that we
Love. and our dear King Foam!
And Mother Ocean we adore,
Wen never leave as those waves OF yore.
Who SO unhappy were away
Longing for the ocean night and day.!
And since that time they never have
left Mother Ocean.
