Seagull
The site is far and it runs for eternity
A beautiful sight for my blue eyes to see
In far an elegant spot which is darkened dull
It's the wingspread flight of the mighty seagull
On the shore standing right here before me
There is a white bird for all the world to see
With his beak in the air and his eyes witty
His appearing profile is gloriously pretty
The cool breeze blows all along the long shore
Raising feather after feather to simply adore
Deep rippled water forcefully rolls into high tide
While the mighty bird stands with mighty high pride
The air which I feel brush all across my soft face
Turns my cheeks pink into an appearance with grace
Beauty lies in all which comes into this nature's hull
To share the lovely home of the mighty seagull!
