The Mirage

The Mirage

The beach is long and wide and bright
There's not a single bloke in sight
And on the horizon a mirage, it seems
A single ship - a ship of dreams.

Upon its mast a flag unfurls,
Depicting many naughty girls
Their skimpy dress my eyes resent
I look around in embarrassment.

There's no one here except myself
And who sails on the continental shelf.
This ship has come from ancient times
And could be pirates doing crimes.

But no, the flag is changing now
And showing awesome scenes, I vow
My eyes have never seen such sights
My stimulation never reached such heights.

But now the ship is sailing fast
My view was never meant to last,
It's fading in the deep blue sea
And I am left with naught to see.
