Song of Love
© Stephen Martin Friday, January 11, 2008
Once upon a time
a mermaid sweet but all alone
lifted on the tide
and sang a lovely poem.
Although each day her song would shine
no one ever showed.
Patiently behaved
this mermaid in her lonely sea
rolling with the waves
she tried to be at ease.
Although each day her smile was brave
loneliness remained.
How her song carried sweet and clear.
How she still believed that yes someday he would appear.
Love was strong, with confidence and cheer.
When would he show?
"Song upon the breeze
how I wish you’d carry, finally, please
to the man I love
how happy I’ll be then.
Just tell him how I love him so.
Love will bring him in.
Song upon the breeze, bring my lover in."

My hobbies include writing poetry about the faeries, elves, gnomes, mermaids and magic of the Sebastopol, Bodega Bay, Sonoma County area.
