The Gift of This Eve

One enchanted evening I followed Luna’s moon, as She guided my ship to a secret lagoon. In a golden ocean buffed to a mirror sheen, I spied the sexiest mermaid I'd ever seen. She flaunts ebony hair befitting, a true Queen, offset by a sweeping tail of aquamarine. Anchored in the shallows I waded to the shore, and evoked the magic that would open love's door. Under a full March moon she steps from fantasy, and rises from the sea to make sweet love to me. Sharing this special night I know that she must leave, and I’m to be content with the gift of this eve.

Great image to go along with this sexy tail of a tale. How could you resist with her beckoning to you like that? Well done, Emile.
