Sea Song
Sea Song is dedicated to my brother in law Bob Cooper. Bob loved to take his Beneteau 33.7 out on the Gulf of Mexico. The picture of the sunrise at the top of this post was taken by my other brother-in-law Jim this morning…
Sea Song – Sam Polk
Sea Song was originally written 40 years ago while I lived in Indian River, ME. The song was inspired by my friendship with a retired lobster fisherman named Sam Polk who was born in 1890 and who lived across the road from me with his daughter Iona and her husband Carlton, who ran the lobster co-op in Jonesport.
Sam retired at age 85 – he said his vision was starting to fail. We should all have an avocation we like that much!
