If I Were a Seagull
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.
