Spirit of the Boardwalk (OctPoWriMo Day 17)


A message written in the sand should always wash away
Always wash away
Always wash away.
A message written in the sand should always wash away
Now what shall I do?

The memories of my childhood are floating in the sea
Floating in the sea
They drift away from me.
The memories of my childhood are floating in the sea
Now what shall I do?

Ferris wheels and roller-coasters sinking in the waves
They’re sinking in the waves.
They could not be saved.
Never thought the boardwalk would be sinking in the waves.
Now what shall I do?

A Sandy message on the beach should always wash away
Always wash away.
I guess another day.
A Sandy message on the beach should always wash away.
Now what shall I do?
