The Cremation of Sam McGee

This one in particular is appropriate for these wintry nights, this reading by Johnny Cash makes it really come alive.  An old favourite I shared with the kids tonight.

I saw this on Facebook, shared by John S.  Really, really fantastic.

Also, I am officially an old fart.  Get off my snowbank.

One thought on “The Cremation of Sam McGee

  1. A fun family listen for sure… and not ironically by the fire to boot. After we listened, we decided that I personally, am Sam McGee. Court has noted here before that I am thermally challenged. I love how being cold has been described here and can appreciate how Sam requested to shut the door as the draft should not be let in.

    Must be a “dad” favourite as I am sure my dad also loved and introduced me to this poem as a kid.
