Walter Lane Poems

How proud I am of Canada
The country of my birth
Described by other Nations
As the greatest place on Earth
...

Today I went for a walk
In the forest with the trees
I didn't need to talk, the
Trees they talked to me
...

There is something about
A Mothers' Love
Akin to Gods' Love for
His Son
...

Blessed are they that mourn
Is what our Lord Jesus said
And He promised we'd be comforted
As we sorrow for our dead
...

I saw a little bird today
Standing on the snow
Whose movements were not normal
Being very slow
...

Thou speaketh to me of
Love and Romance
Friendship, hope and joy
...

You see their little faces
Peering at you from the screen
The little children of this world
Whose plights oft go unseen
...

Fairest maiden, I promise thee that
If you treat this peer of the realm
With dignity, love, loyalty and devotion
I shall in turn treat you as my prized possession
...

Her rail is down
Sails pulling hard
TheRoadToTheIsle
Is sailing windward
...

These eyes have never seen
The rising of the sun
Or watched the children playing
In the streets and having fun
...

Dear God, I need your help so badly
I am so ashamed
For I have broken the commandments
Given in your name
...

T'was the night before Xmas,
I was having a fit, as
I hadn't got,
my wife'sPresent yet.
...

13.

I may only have a minute
I may only have a day
Or I may have a year or two
In which to change my ways
...

Many a man has seen
The Dorothy Ellen under sail
And it filled their hearts with joy
As it would do any male
...

15.

Love is so wonderful
It puts a sparkle in our eyes
And fills our hearts with happiness
We hope never dies
...

I ask for nothing and
Nothing I get, I want
For nothing, Nothing
Just yet. I need
...

17.

Poetry is freedom
It permits you to
Express yourself
Without hurting
...

The Best Poem Of Walter Lane

How Proud I Am Of Canada

How proud I am of Canada
The country of my birth
Described by other Nations
As the greatest place on Earth

My country is diversified
With many sights to see
From the mountains of the Pacific
To the maritimes by the sea

In between are the praries
Where the wheatfields grow so tall
While in Quebec is a culture
Not so different from us all

And then there is Ontario
Big and very strong
Whose strength and wealth
Help carry this great land along

In the North we have a presence
Of a people our hearts endear
For they manage to see the brighter side
Of a life most of us would fear

There's and Island in the Atlantic
A place called Newfoundland
That is home to a rugged people
And scenery oh so grand

And then there are the peoples
Who come from distant parts
Immigrants we may call them
But they're Canadians in their hearts

Immigrants is a word that
Describes us to a 'T'
And except for the aboriginals
Our Ancestors came by sea

Now some would like to criticize
For in their hearts they cannot see
The beauty of this country
And the fact that we are free

You don't have to lose your culture
To live in this great land
Just leave your ethenic quarrels
In your own Birth land

You can still enjoy your language
And the customs of your life
For your customs enriches this country
And with that we have no fight

So be proud of Canada
The greatest place on earth
And treat it like you would
The country of your birth
