A Mermaids Tale
That was the last we saw of her
ever
….. The mermaids tail that was
now all of her blues and her
grays
….. and her silvers an all
are quite marbled away
Like the
….. skin of a mackerel
long since landed and played
Her wave washed goodbye said it all
….. and gave the whole game way
to a sigh on the wind
and since then
….. she has only by seen
by gulls, cormorants, and crakes
But for a moment
….. back then, I just knew I could fly..
