If the Life Vest Is Put On

F-riday twenty-seventh January 
L-ets the new dawn break; 
O-pening the day with warmth, 
R-ays erase the heartache. 
E-arly morn has broken, 
N-o more mist in the meadow; 
C-old chill has vanished, 
E-ven the deepest sorrow. 

F-ill your heart with thrill, 
U-nder the blue skyline; 
L-et the clouds stay white, 
G-ood weather remains fine. 
E-very ocean or sea 
N-ever hides from the beacon; 
C-omfort and safety are certain, 
I-f the life vest is put 
O-n.
