I love Maine in the early fall. It's still warm enough to go outside without a jacket, but there is a cool nip in the air. The leaves are turning colors, and the waters are sparkling blue. Today made me feel like singing our state song.
Proudly we sing,
To tell your glories to the land,
To shout your praises til the echoes ring!
Should fate unkind send us to roam,
The scent of the fragrant pine,
The tang of the salty sea
Will call us home.
Oh, Pine Tree State,
Your woods, fields, and hills,
Your lakes, streams, and rock-bound coasts
Will ever fill our hearts with thrills,
And though we seek far and wide,
Our search will be in vain
To finder a fairer spot on earth
Than Maine...Maine...Maine!"
(Written by Roger Vinton Snow )
If you are a Mainer, do you know this song? If you are from another state, do you know your own state song? (Share it with us.)
