A Mermaid
A Mermaid or In Response to Poem of the Day
There was a maiden that they called a miracle
Containing emphatic data defined by empirical
But to measure her beauty was hard to use
So we had to come up with a perfect excuse.
Even though lingering lights did become dim
Along with all other poets happened to them
Wits were without and many may have known
Pictures and personalities were caste in stone.
This was when we soon started and realized
They were all beyond belief and unrecognized
Found out only one receiving a passing grade
Was Margie the miracle who became a mermaid.
Ho Ho Ho
