she was a simple child

She was a simple child Loved her seat by the sea Where she waited for the fisherman Who waved and said What a simple child She was happy with whatever life brought Smiling during the sunny times Holding hands and soothing feelings when others felt sad She was a simple teenager The boys who grew up with her fell in love With her simple ways, and her utter sweetness She was a flower they all wanted to take home She was loved by them, and loved by the sea They married others and watched her from their ships She waved and threw flowers out to them The flowers lasted on the sea for a long time For even the sea loved her simple ways
