Kids In Catalina - Summer Fiction

Dig your feet into the sand

Wade the ocean, take my hand

Mom and Dad have gone away

Walk through flames to douse the lust

As the daylight turns to dusk

And the houseboats light the bay

Swept away from native shores

Walk the plank, the diver’s board

Sorry sir, but I was told

That these straights were paved with gold

Island plates won’t break away

Sarah’s sore from chewing gum

Drunk on Diet Coke and rum

Blue sarong and brown beret

Tonight we sail painted pastel

Goodbye sun and sea and shell
