Mermaids
The embodiments of our dreams
King Neptune's lovely daughters
We mortals strive to find you real
Lusty sirens of the sea blue waters
Of face and form you are perfection
In your golden hair a seashell gleams
Dressed in glistening scales of green
Magical perfection, or so it seems
With muted voice you bid us follow
And in mist and foam you slip away
In the depths we find the answer
Only in our minds the answers play
