Tiffany Mermaids
By: Noah Eaton
8/20/02

Stained-glass pirouettes
Storm depths of the lush south sea
Mysteriously


Tiffany mermaids
Brushing hair with coral combs
Watching the sunrise


Strumming cembalos
In dracaena palaces
Ushering Neptune


Chinese water lilies
Braiding their fair hair
For their serene Prom


In full moon fever
Mermaids screech their mating calls
Through heavens conch shell...



"Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

Shakira

Noah, this is wonderful and the picture is lovely too. Chris

I think I need to take a trip to the Carribean or the South Seas. I enjoyed this very much Noah. Great writing and I love the soft pastel colors.

Hugs, Marti

I still embrace it, for I know
that in between those thorns,
there is a rose worth all the pain."
