So many times from the sea, A mermaid, I had hoped to see. A mermaid, who grew up in the sea. I know it was a silly notion To hope to find love in the ocean But the waves beckoned me out Hopes of a mermaid made me shout. From swimming the sea, she’d not be stout. Lithe, beautiful, and friendly with me, I’m looking for a beautiful vision from the sea. I can imagine her flying and splashing Swimming and smiling, a lovely figure dashing A figure like a goddess, beauty flashing You can feel the pull of this being She is warmth, love and revealing! I watched her go through my mind But she doesn’t notice people of my kind She was from the ocean with a different behind Still she flashed across my imagination Beauty and grace, lovely, with no reservation That’s all there is about the mermaid tale though the longing is still there I have a lot more visions to share and to tell, it’s just not polite to stare But don’t worry, my creations aren’t from hell, those are contained down there. Visions I have of freedom, huge spaces and lots of light. I create visions intended to delight. The mermaid would have it so. ©2009 Carl Watts www.carlwattsartist.com |
