by Jacqueline Bouvier
When I go down by the sandy shore
I can think of nothing I want more
Than to live by the booming sea
As the seagulls flutter round about me
I can run about -- when the tide is out
With the wind and the sand and the sea all about
And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish
Oh -- to live by the sea is my only wish.
