The Wailing Beach Girl
Let me tell you a really sad story,
The interesting saga of the "wailing beach girl",
I attest to its fictional category,
It has every nuance of a romantic whirl;
A beautiful girl was once walking on the beach,
When she met the most handsome man,
He was the captain of a ship named "Water Peach",
It was love at first sight, she became his fan;
He too loved her outgoing temerity,
And thus began their beach love dates,
They loved each other with such sincerity,
By the end of his trip, they were inseparable mates;
Then, one day, he had to go back sailing,
She was left all alone and felt barren,
Every day, she sat on the beach wailing
At the wide aperture he had left her in;
She waited and waited for him to come back,
Then, one day, got the news about "Water Peach"
The ship had drowned. Her heart had a crack,
She still thinks about him sitting on the beach;
She had a proclivity towards the sea,
For it was there, she met him first,
Deep down in her marrow, she believes it to be
Her first and last "true love" accursed.
