Mermaid's Song
" Mermaids' Song "
In a time & a land of coconuts & sand~
Were two whose love against odds did stand~
Windswept & with seas troubled at times~
Their love only to them seemed such the rime~
She was bold & brave so bound to be free~
He surely did love her as he sailed those seas~
Together & as one they so ventured wildly forth~
Oft times to warm south somedays cold north~
They laughed with the sun & danced to the moon~
All those around given great cause to swoon~
This then fer certain was love meant to be~
So these two together set sails with great glee~
Now there did come to him & as well to her~
A time not of pleasure but which to endure~
Winds did so calm & waves did abate~
Twas not by choice did then flow in such fate~
Yet this day may be heard in calms well offshore~
A song softly sung by those mermaids of yore~
Of these two spirits so then torn asunder~
Whose parting gave cause & reason to wonder~
Listen well up & carefully ye all~
Lest not ye come to same sort of fall~
Secret being in open mind & true heart~
Thus then forever ye'll not be set apart~
