M. L. Kiser Poet Free verse

The Greeters

By the turquoise sea waters
lovely blossoms arise from their bulbs; 
salute the mountains of their land
and wave at me, as breezes blow.

The azure sky o’er mountains gleams
full of cotton fluffed clouds;
bluebells ring songs to waves that 
carry them to sailor’s lonely ears.

Would that mermaids had their legs,
these flowers they would pick and wear;
while singing out their siren songs.
to passing ships in early evening light.
