Somewhere in Ontario

02 April 2006


From somewhere in Ontario
a tree does grow
Not just any tree
a ‘Tania’ tree to know

For what was beauty
in God of creation to view
This place of dew point to stand
no ocean to drift and shine
This place of water in a lake to wet
a place in Ontario and Tania, never to forget

Mysterious eyes - mischief upon her cheek
a mother, not looking, but knowing to find
Her man of amour and a knight in kind

Somewhere in Ontario - a capital state
provincial bounds of this place within
A place to run and mutual in respect to win


“Tania, our song will go on forever
just like a clear sky of blue
Tania our hearts make music together
sweet Tania my song is for you”
Lyrics: Tania - John Rowels (1978)
Born on 26th March 1947 in Whakatane and
raised in Kawerau in the Bay Of Plenty, New Zealand

to read and hear with a short music clip


a poet who cares
