Winter On the Boardwalk
All of the summer tourists have gone away.
Only a few residents like us will stay.
Here we are on the New Jersey shore.
The boardwalk, sand, and surf are what I adore.
It is winter now, and quite cold outside.
I still love the scenery, and I can't stay inside.
Entrance into the cold ocean waves I don't dare.
I can still take in the crisp, salty air.
There are many seagulls flying around.
They are making their laughing-like sound.
Yes, you can see there remains much activity,
That's what you can expect if you live near Atlantic City.
