Blue against blue
molten gold beneath warm brown
iridescent greens
fade in favor of yellow heat
waves of smiles wash over me...

Watery kingdoms below
weep sparkling tears
queens & princesses alike
shall never return again...

Blue against blue
molten gold burns hot
against warm brown toes...
fins nor tails ever
walked the yellow
heat of summer~
waves of smiles wash
over me...

~Tier{R.T.}

Kelly, are you just saying that because it's about many like you? *Hugs* :-)

IrishRose, that's exactly what I tried to portray, thank you!! *smiles*

Thank you, SEA, I appreciate the compliment! :-)

*smiles* Thank you, Sven, As a child, I used to imagine being one...

No way are the mermaid gone, Joyce, They've only shed their tails to walk "... the molten gold of Summer ...in favor of yellow heat." *chuckles*
