The Worst Beach Souvenirs


by cibola

--------

Every time I go to the beach,

I want a souvenir to remember fun times!

But each item that's within my reach,

Is often terrible, even if it rhymes.

Let me walk you through my woes,

On each beach that I found myself on.

This way you can avoid these sorrows,

When you're on vacation and gone!

I want to go back to Krawk Island soon!

I wish I could list all that I ate!

But after my stop at the Golden Dubloon,

The Cannon Fodder as leftovers wasn't so great.

Altador was such a fun place to go,

Who knew they had such fun sun and sand!

I tried to bring home a Garfir, though,

And thought I'd never make it back to land!

As a foodie, Mystery Island was the perfect stay,

With the best chefs to cook for me!

My souvenir choice was not the best, I'll say,

The Bottle of Evil Sand truly evil, you see.

I held my breath and took the leap,

Maraqua was so different and blue.

My suitcase, however, I couldn't keep,

The Maractite Throwing Net is strong, I tell you.

Roo Island is my favorite beach to date,

As a creative, it was the perfect spot!

I drank a cup of Java Jive while I ate,

And let's say my voice totally lost the plot.

So when you're walking through the beach,

Try pick better souvenirs than that day.

I know I shouldn't be one to preach,

But my experience speaks for itself, okay!
