This was beautiful. It perfectly captures the essence of the poem, I think.

I'm in love with your voice Michael. When you sing (and play the guitar) it reminds me of home so much it brings tears to my eyes. Thank so much for posting, you have such a beautiful voice.... ;)

Very nice indeed , Michael! One of my favourite poems, and you`ve done it so tastefully. A gentle, almost sad tone which fits so well to the poem. Thank you.

I woke up with the first line of this poem in my head so I searched out it's words and looked for a reading. I think I read this poem in high school about 40 plus years ago. I didn't like the poem then. Now I love the beauty of nature and I can certainly relate to the words. There is a youtube of Masefield reciting his poem. I don't like it. It sounds depressing. I am glad I found a lovely version of the poem in your song and another piano version elsewhere.
