Mermaid Most Fair

If I could be a fanciful being, I think I would be, a mermaid, that lived among the creatures in the sea. To have flowing red hair, that everyone could spy, when I was out and about, swimming by. My tail, the long fish-like part of me, an iridescent, aqua blue, color of the sea. I would wear jewels from treasures buried deep. Upon wrecked ships, lying forever in sleep. I would swim swiftly beside the whales, making sure to stay far from their tails. I would aid all sealife that needed me. To help a sailor, who may be lost at sea. If I would get weary, I would grab a fin, of a playful, friendly dolphin to pull me in. I would worry about fishing nets I would find, warning all my ocean friends to keep in mind. To be known in "Atlantis", if it is really there. As a special friend, who was a mermaid most fair. Why would I want this fantasy to be? So I could live my life in the beautiful sea.

I am glad the little girl still within remembers the joy of fantasy. Sometimes we do forget. Thank you, Cay Cay

Reminds me of that song, "Under The Sea" in The Littlest Mermaid. Isn't imagination a wonderful thing? A really fun read, Sandra:)
