Seagull

I fly high into the sky 
I soar and soar alone 
I am a little seagull 
The seas and oceans are my home 

Over the waves I wander 
I meet others on my way
We huddle and create memories 
And then we depart away

A lonely life I lead 
Across the valleys and hills 
From shore to shore I ponder 
And dive into the deep blue seas

I love to sing and chatter
I  love the sun at dawn
I love the shells that wobble
And the radiant hues of morn

I envy nobody
Nobody cares when I am gone
I am just a happy little birdie
And my life goes on and on
