A Siren's Song Under a Crescent Moon
The stars beckoned her song
to reach the crescent moon
Awoken before the water serpents arise,
and sea merchants sail in, from shores nearby
At crack of dawn, and drawn to flickering lights
night's natator of the bluest sea
zigzagging through the starfish,
caught in a seaweed beaded necklace
tangled in nets sailors left adrift
reaching the open prismatic sky
A rainbow parrot fish tail flips over
smoothed sea glass rock
Multicolored moments, eyes dilate
as lavender glows it blankets
in silhouettes upon flowing strands of hair
embracing the early morn with a sigh
Mystified mermaid from deep underwater,
thumping heart beats calm, in sync
with the crashing wave as it trickles down
A phenomenal crescent moon appears
As a cool salty wash laps the rocky shore
it recedes with sizzling sounds leaving
pocket holes in the wet sand
It calls with haunting cries
She sings a siren's song
