BOARDWALK ANGEL
The sun was setting in the west
The birds had gone to sleep
The tourists had all gone home
The water: still and deep.
She wore a dress of gingham
Her hair blew in the wind
Barefoot, tanned and hungry
For only thoughts of him.
The ocean lay in front of her
The land seemed far away
As this 'lil boardwalk angel
Tossed her dreams away.
Far off in the distance
She heard a seagull 's cry
It sounded like a final call
Before he drowned and died.
The wind had turned into a chill
As she realized it was late
She saw the lights of her home
The boardwalk now a taste of fate.
The seagull chose his destiny
For while she sensed the danger
Home seemed more inviting
To this lovesick boardwalk angel.
