Aquamarine Mermaid Living In Oak

aquamarine mermaid living in oak
flowing sleeves color her romantically
she is delicate and graceful

is she a mystic? a faerie firefly asks
I have no response,
feeling unworthy

Is she a tree mermaid?
With those flowery net hose?
I think it doubtful

But here I am, lost and alone,
wondering about the wonder of
this magical, mystical aquamarine tree maid.
