Array ( [sid] => 34712 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => MERMAID [time] => 2004-02-12 10:20:18 [hometext] => Music of the soul ........ [bodytext] => She listened to the murmur of the wind
In the breeze she felt presence of mind
What breeze could blow such a beautiful song
Music of the gods a melody so tempting so strong

The tide began to ebb as she swam from the shore
To her father the king who would listen to her no more
To hear him my child but to see him that's to much
Her desire so wrong she needed that sense of touch

Her father roared do not go they walk on mans land
We belong in the sea come child take my hand
A tear larger than an ocean pearl fell from her eye
Father if I stay down here I know I will surely die

Go then my child cover up your scales and tail
Return at high tide no later and wear a partial veil
The sea horses made her a dress from the coral
Encrusted with pearls and sea jewels so floral

To the land of men and the haunting of her soul
She followed the music that made her feel whole
Night after night she was captivated by his voice
Getting closer to him she did not have a choice

Her sigh softer than an angel softer than a wave
He turned and saw her beauty his love engraved
Tears flowed from her eyes as salty as the sea
Do not go he begged you must stay here with me

I must go back home this is not where I belong
A longing brought me here to listen to your song
I am a mermaid you don't belong in the sea with me
I would die for you he said forever in harmony

The water came up to his waist the tide all around
The water closed over him as he sank deeper down
As he looked into her eyes he knew he was bewitched
By a beautiful mermaid he felt so peaceful so enriched

Far below in the waters of a sea green ocean
He sang her songs and lullabies poetry in motion
I love you he whispered to her across the sea
The voice of the waves brought you to me


Love Angelxxxx
