Notes About The Poem
This is my first ever footle poem..

Sirens

in pearls 
              kiss curls  

        mermaid
moon-made

teal scales
        tea tames 

        rose light
 jade night 

wine bleeds
           wave heeds

         soul dove 
soothes love 

shell sings
       zeal zings

         stars crease 
sage breeze

heart seethes  
          sea breathes...
