From beneath foam and spray, where the Sun light never penetrates, in fathom's chilly forbidden Realm lies a kingdom of golden coral reefs. Poseidon’s children of the murky depths dwell, in liberation's Untamed wilderness of the unknown. Mermaids and mermen living in this aquatic domain, Of the evergreen's seaweed jungle, a lost paradise Hidden under the big blues stormy seas. Titan's sons and daughters, freedom’s enlightened Spiritual unbound souls, rejoice in essences elegance, In these sacred waters of the bluest deep. Swimming acrobate of the brimmy mists, enchantments Beguiling sirens sing an ancient mystical tones lullaby, Tempting the land dwellers. to cast aside their earthen Tethers, daring them to plunge under the tidal surf. To death’s splendor of silence, and yet for one moment’s Single breath held, to experience the ultimate beauty, Known only to these creatures of the immortal deep. In purity's crystal clear thoughts, uncluttered by the ideas Of humanity, instinctual beings living completely without Boundaries restrictions. Loving spirits, children of joys innocence, reveling In exhilaration secret garden, in this timeless bubble, Beneath theses mystic waves of blue. Behold the natural wonder called the great barrier reef, Where creatures of myth, playfully frolic, in a tag team Match of hide and go seek, weaving, dodging through A seaweed forest of tidal riptides divides. Sleek mere creatures of the oceans Tidal tribes, banding together to survive. Dancing in sequence with the waves turning motions. Singing forgotten songs in tender under tones, Sweet melodies to one another. Beauty in contrast in such wondrous currents Of mythology. Do they really exist who knows, but in the soul of Wonderment, I believe they do, these the mermaids, Of the deepest blue.

HAve you seen the documentaries on mermaids. I got so excited thinking they existed and then it was proclaimed a scam!! And the show was on that Documentary channel. That really bummed me out.
