John and I want to thank Ron for all his hard work for the BBS. This is a poem about what this BBS means to both John and I. Amy Cole - A Submariner's Wife |

|
Is a special place to be It's the finest place in subberspace As any sailor can see. |
|
Who made their life the sea But landlubbers too are welcome Whose hearts are one with thee. |
|
With a twinkle in your eye And know your yarn is understood 'Cause you would never tell a "lie". |
|
Relived from long ago The kind that bring a tear to your eye You wish they were not so. |
|
Who always will be young Are remembered for their supreme sacrifice Their lives had just begun. |
|
The Runner and Hogfish cruise Beneath the waves of subberspace To Perth and the ice-cap too. |
|
Will banter with the nukes Generations come together The commonality of roots. |
|
Are the people who are there People who laugh and people who cry People who truly care. |
|
For opening your base to all Bringing submariners together It's the BEST PORT OF CALL! |
