maggie and milly and molly and may
went down to the beach(to play one day)

so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and

milly befriended a stranded star
whose rays five languid fingers were;

and molly was chased by a horrible thing
which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

as small as a world and as large as alone.

For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)
it's always ourselves we find in the sea
