Mermaid's Flight

MERMAID'S FLIGHT: A Collaborative Sea Sonnet Mermaid's Flight Poseidon drew up from the salty sea, a silver splash of wave from Earth to Moon. Sailor appealing Neptune's pride of three, gazed down fantasizing mermaid's kiss soon. Great sea-storm surge may eternally faze, sweet paradise in lonely sailor's dreams. Then lifted is she from the coral maze, held in riptides and pressed in boiling streams. Then up he rides on his seahorse untamed, and captures her mad from his winded ride. From dark sea depth's hold, sweet mermaid unnamed, in sailor's arms, Neptune can not abide. He named the sprite and kissed her full and well, from heaven's grasp he gained the star that fell.
