MERMAIDS&MERMEN

Neptune with his Crown &Trident
Lord of All His Watery Realms
with Fish Scales and a slapping tail
Three points on his stem

Sirens calling Odysseus
Haunting him with Song
He hears them and to his reef
comes a crashing on

Mermaids seen by moon struck sailors
Dugongs,dolphins,tiny whales
Years without a woman means
They are seeing mermaid dreams

Moon and waters alchemy
Calling tides eternally
Deep as sailors bed she lays
waiting for her /pray...
