Long Beach
Long Beach is a beautiful place to be.
Blue crashing, roaring sea, full of life and happy to be.
Sand castles, motes and walls are built.
Cold people are wrapped in a nice warm quilt, as kids play all day.
Fog rolls in and seagulls call.
As we leave the beach, as night falls, we leave our sand castles, motes and walls.
Then come back in the morning with seagulls to greet us
And the roaring ocean to meet us.
I love Long Beach and glad it is in reach.
So please love this beach as I do.
