The Magothy River

 

The Magothy River with fish and boats,
Long green seaweed and buoys that float.
Maybe we’ll swim maybe we’ll fish
Or maybe we’ll stop at Magothy Seafood for a dish.
Today it’s rough, yesterday it was smooth,
When it gets windy the waves will really move.
Sometimes we boat over to the bay,
We even go under the bridge, like yesterday.
When we go under the bridge it’s real dark,
I didn’t believe my brother when he said he saw a shark.
When it gets late it’s time to go home,
But we all know we had a great river roam.
