about

Composer Glen Foster, Parent Publishing SOCAN

lyrics

She's a fragrant flower, fairest one of all
On a thorny tower, sturdy, straight and tall
Crowned with staying power, blooming in the fall
Who could it be?

Winter Rose adorns a splendid sailing ship
Emblazoned on the bow, a moniker that fits
Sheltered in the harbour, moored in a slip
Who could for-see?

My Winter Rose, true beauty shows
Fair trade winds blow, My Winter Rose

Once a dream was nothing but a fantasy
Just a gleam within the eye of destiny
Then the scheme became a clear reality
Who could have known?

Now a mighty schooner, fit as she can be
Trimmed and weighing anchor, sails expectantly
On a grand adventure o'er the restless sea
For ports unknown

My Winter Rose, a steady course she holds
Deep currents flow, My Winter Rose

Captain's concealing something, a treasure map he keeps
Smuggled by a scuttled pirate, salvage from the deep
Fearing sabotage and mutiny he sleeps - suspicion grows

There's a trade embargo, the skipper wasn't told
And a precious cargo is hidden in the hold
Could be contraband or artifacts they've stowed - nobody knows

My Winter Rose, boldly she goes
No fear she knows, My Winter Rose
