A Northerner's Dream of the Florida Keys Bumping away from the mainland through tht latter watchts of a F"hruary night, stretc-hrd in :on upper berth ·cJose behind nn Enst Con<t oil burnin~: locomotive, a dyed-in-the-wool Northerner met do11n 011 the Florida Keys, and within him this bit of a classic was inspired : "Som"where around this enrth of ,1urs Gcd may hnl'e painted n more glorious picture for the eyt~ of mortal man to look upon than dawn across the Florida Kep, but I fet:l this morning as if I ~hall miss nothing if I ne1·"r see it.

"Emerald islands rimmed with coral, pick<d frc m the blend of night by the outstretching finger~ of a \' US! and genial sun: Islands sd like encrust((\ jtwtl > in the marvelously glowing shimmer of entranc-ir~ Southern seas; dum'r pelicans somer~aultinl':' ~fttr a prec-arious breakfast in the brown anu purple wom!trgard~ns of the shallows close at hand; cranes >lirril:~ at the brt•ath of a fre,h , new morning to the gran·fully fascinating acti1·itics of another Lower Fl oric!a day ;. n rising brct·ze coyly kissins;:- the frond~ of whisp"ring hosts of coconut palms . " If tloe Floritla Kcys could inspire this drcatmr to such a flow of wonlly eloquence, we tremble to enn think what a l'isit to our Emerald ''Island of Guam " like U chip flUnJ.{ down by the triumphant Slln at it> parting with the <lawn, and with its tropical f a ir,~­ land of nn earthly E1len, would inspire in 'u ch a dreamer .
