At the heart of the ocean

'Titanic' they called her, the largest made,
A legend, a legacy, never to fade!
What a beauty she was! Luxurious, grand...
Looked heaven-sent, made by God's hand.
And they gave her a journey, only to suit,
London to New York, that was her route,
2,200, she was to take,
Safely across; never sink, never break...

Titanic, she was,
          So lovely, so strong,
Little did they know,
          She'd sing her last song.

Prepared to leave, all metal and glass,
She was ready to go, our pretty lass!
The passengers differed, but one thing was the same,
Everyone loved her, from her shape to her name.
She set off on 12th April, so lovely and fine,
Off to make history, earn some headlines.
For three days she cruised, the ocean's crown,
So close to the heavens, never to go down.

Titanic, she was,
          So lovely, so strong,
Little did they know,
          She'd sing her last song.

It was hidden in the sea, the menacing ice,
The berg which caused the sacrifice,
In came the water, flooding the ship,
The vessel would now never finish her trip!
Some people turned selfish, their hearts gripped with fear...
But others were selfless, though they too, shed a tear.
And so, in the freezing water, so blue,
She gave a shudder, a sigh, and broke into two.

Titanic, she was,
         So lovely, so strong,
Adored till the end,
        Till she sang her last song.
