The Mermaid Dream

                                   [Photo: My finger painting:)]
The waves rolled calmly

Lulling the sea animals into a deep slumber.

As the little fishes slept among the corals

They heard her singing softly.

The murmuring of the mermaid

Soothed them in their dreams. 

Was she beside them?

Or was she nearly a figment of their imagination?

As every night the angels of the seabed 

Drifted away to sleep,

They came under her spell.

A flash of black hair,

Luscious like the waves.

A dazzle of bright colors,

Vibrant as the faraway rainbow.

A soft sigh, and the swish of a tail

She thus floated in and out of their dreams

As they smiled and slept on

Waiting for that first ray of light

To fall on them from above.  

[Have you ever seen a fish smile? Do you think they can? Perhaps the song of a mermaid can put a smile on their face:)]
