Magnificent Beings of the Sea

Under the sea foam and skipping on waves while holding those regal heads up high; their beauty is pure and their magic draws raves into the deep under moonlit sky. Many a ship filled with sailors and such had witnessed the mystery of their dark eyes. Some even swore they had felt a cold touch, had stood stock still and become mesmerized. Womanly body and tail of a fish were what they remembered when telling their story. Some even were granted their every last wish; some quite overcome by tumultuous glory. Those tales through the years grew from timid to strong as men of all sorts recounted their fate; meeting beautiful creatures who burst into song and gathered at a most alarming rate. You may doubt these tales but just watch the deep sea and wonderment will surely fascinate you. As waves overtake you you're suddenly free; some glorious being sails you through the blue.

You are a wonderful storyteller! I was so drawn into this enchanting tale that I didn't want it to end! Great rhyming in this poem, also!.... Is this for the mermaid contest? If so, I wish you the best of luck, Deb!
