Mermaid Fantasy

Out on the ocean A lonely fisherman cries He's unable to find true love No matter how hard he tries. So many failures In his life there have been To Neptune he's praying ''Please find me a queen'' Suddenly from the blue sea A voice can be heard ''I'll find your true love'' If you give me your word. You must tell her often Just how much she means To a heart full of romance and forever dreams. I give you my promise He heard the fisherman say Neptune carried the boat onward To meet true love half way. This is the spot Now you must not forget To catch your true love You must cast your net. After heaving and toiling The fisherman watched the net rise Until the sight of his true love Greeted his eyes. A beautiful mermaid Reached out for his hand Her tail disappearing As they touched dry land. His lips met hers Their hearts were aflutter So wrapped up in love No words did they utter They lived happily ever after In a villa by the sea And until the end of forever Will share this romantic fantasy. 30th May 2014 Contest

Costa Concordia in 2006 huh. We have been Holland American and went on Brilliance of the Sea from Spain to Turkey and back. What a great trip. Love all of your poems ach in a different way. If you get a chance, read some of my most recent poems which it appears that you have done away. So anchors away. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran

We have so much in common its scary Linda. Darren really is my soul mate - it is down to more than fate that we write together - can't believe I am so lucky to have found him. If I bumped into something I'm sure he would offer to rub it better :-) hugs Jan xxxx

Awww Casarah that is such a lovely comment it means the world to us. Win or lose we write for fun but it's comments like yours that make it all worthwhile. I can't read your 'Gone with the Wind' entry as we are judging blind but I know it will be awesome. I got my first ever no 1 spot with Darren for Sleeping Beauty I haven't stopped smiling since Hugs as ever Jan xxxx
