Maple Leaf Forever
O, land of blue unending skies,
Mountains strong and sparkling snow,
A scent of freedom in the wind,
O'er the emerald fields below.
To thee we brought our hopes, our dreams,
For thee we stand together,
Our land of peace, where proudly flies,
The Maple Leaf forever.
Chorus:
Long may it wave, and grace our own,
Blue skies and stormy weather,
Within my heart, above my home,
The Maple Leaf forever!
From East and West, our heroes came,
Throught icy fields and frozen bays,
Who conquered fear, and cold, and hate,
And their ancient wisdom says:
Protect the weak, defend your rights,
And build this land together,
Above which shine the Northern Lights,
And the Maple Leaf forever!
I was so taken with this song as I listened to Michael Buble sing this beautiful song at the 2010 Olympic closing ceremonies. The new lyrics tell of courage, peace and freedom. Watching with pride, all our athletes who won and performed their best for the country we live in. This song had such meaning -- Maple Leaf Forever - Canada!
You will be looking for a camoed container & please bring your own writing instrument.
As all good cachers, please put it back "exactly" where and how it was placed, well hidden for the next cacher and so a muggler will not see it!
It would be best to find this cache in DAYLIGHT ONLY, as there is security on during the night and they might not take kindly to people looking around at night with flashlights!
