Were I a seagull, I would glide so fine with V-shaped wings aflutter in the breeze, above the ocean's whitecap-wave design, along with others, join with calls that please. With V-shaped wings aflutter in the breeze, creating whirling patterns that unfold, along with others, join with calls that please- squawks echoing, rebounding, loud and bold. Creating whirling patterns that unfold, I'd mesmerize with movements of my wings- squawks echoing, rebounding loud and bold, while hunting food amid my gatherings. I'd mesmerize with movements of my wings above the ocean's whitecap-wave design, while hunting food amid my gatherings. Were I a seagull, I would glide so fine.
