Alaska Under The Sun

By Bruce Clifford

When the snow and ice are gone
Alaska under the sun
The radiation would have won
Alaska under the sun
Carry us on

When the white caps turn to rain
And icebergs fall down the drain
When the polar bears are gone
Alaska under the sun
Carry us on

We’re shooting ourselves in the foot
Thinking we’ve done all we could

When the snow and ice are gone
When winter nights are dark and warm
When the fire burns in the sky
When the sun bakes you and I
When the white caps turn to rain
And the icebergs do just the same
When there’s nothing left for the walrus to hold on
Alaska under the sun
Carry us on

©1/21/16 Bruce Clifford
