Baby Faerie and Baby Mermaid

Baby Faerie knew that mermaids were real.
She was pulled to the water with a keen sort of “feel”.
She glanced down deep and liked what she saw.
It was a baby mermaid, so dippy daw daw!

Baby Mermaid had heard that faeries were fake.
She was pulled to the channel of this inner lake.
She spied a baby faerie, and she knew they were real.
Guided here by her inner spiritual “feel”.

They giggled at each other, delighted at what they had found.
Shh! They shushed each other, in case others were around.
Like dogs and cats, babies and toddlers can feel a spiritual being.
They smiled at each other, liking their secret, their mystical seeing.

Thank you. This was easy as I had a marvelous piece of art that inspired it.
