ONE road leads to London, br One road leads to Wales, br My road leads me seawards br To the white dipping sails. br br One road leads to the river, br And it goes singing slow; br My road leads to shipping, br Where the bronzed sailors go. br br Leads me, lures me, calls me br To salt green tossing sea; br A road without earth's road-dust br Is the right road for me. br br A wet road heaving, shining, br And wild with seagull's cries, br A mad salt sea-wind blowing br The salt spray in my eyes. br br My road calls me, lures me br West, east, south, and north; br Most roads lead men homewards, br My road leads me forth. br br To add more miles to the tally br Of grey miles left behind, br In quest of that one beauty br God put me here to find.
