Sea nymph of Pacific pleasures Many a man has fallen for you Enticing them with hidden treasures Dressed in crystal azure blue Undulating waves in perfect motion She casts a glance and tides obey Mistress of the vast blue ocean Changing appearance each night and day When she smiles, the sea is fair Her sunlit waves kiss velvet sand Tradewinds blow her silken hair She beckons a lover to take her hand. Tho’ be forewarned of her fickle moods Changing as the skies turn gray Her oceanic attitudes A tempest tossed on stormy day Don’t ever turn your back on her She demands respect; don’t be a fool Seducing waves of blue allure May suddenly turn her tides on you She softly sings her ancient songs Calling her lover from upon the shore She knows his heart to her belongs; That he’ll return to her once more. Bewitching temptress, lady in blue Who can resist your mystical call? Men through the ages have fallen for you Never could one,resist you at all. Poetry is: |

Excellent metaphor and yet a reality in a sense, for those who are bitten by the sea fall to 'her' allure continually. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

YAY!!! Oh my gosh, I love nymphs and I love mermaids so so much, this is my favorite of yours yet, I just have to add this to my library because it is so magically beautiful! (kiss on cheek) Outstanding, sweet friend, we all love you so much, and if you love mermaids, I wrote a poem titled "Tiffany Mermaids" on Open you might like! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Cheryl, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
