Mermaid Tears mermaid tears polished and smooth, softly colored in oceanic hues aqua, amber, and the deepest of green smooth sides shaped to a velvet sheen. salted and buffeted by the water's waves leaving a beauty no mortal can save tears that flowed from eyes of brown placed on warm sands as a gift to be found created by the sadness from a lover's lost vow riding the tides to where they lay now a heart lies broken on the floor of the sea but mermaid tears shine and beckon teasingly jewels to be found on the distant shores left by a mermaid alive no more killed by a promise that was not to be imprisoned by a home she longed to leave wondrous tales untold, the words now lost of a woman who loved and paid the cost aziza |

Thank you both. The Lady, you made me smile -- a huge smile when I read your words. Potatobunny, I am enjoying reading your words here on the board. Thank you for taking the time to stop at my poem. aziza |
