Mermaid of All Radiance

Her golden locks flow with their curls
Down to the arch of her golden back
Her eyes send a seductive tale to you
A emerald green fish-tail dances
A goddess of the sea 
A mistress of a legend many would tell

Like the pirate that finds his treasure
The treasure chest unlocked
The deepness of the kingdom she calls home 
She can love you or drown you
As some are taken to their doom with no rescue
Some just dont  know what they are doing 

The fishermen have heard her song as they wait their catch 
A voice of an angel that could take you to all eternity
Her beauty takes hold of your senses a moment of tease
Through the magical tune of the mermaids eyes oh so divine
Like the taste of grapevines a allurement of the mind
Storys have been told, fairytales have sent enchantment

A scene has been painted 
The waters are their grounding surround
They watch as the scarlet sun reflects the oceans wave
The ruby red of sunset lays upon them 
As night falls the stars protect them
A mermaid in all her splendor ,as she now swims with all radiance.....
