Love Poem: Mermaid Minx

Mermaid Minx

On green sea,
Mermaid free,
Wetness gleam,
Sunlit dream!
Movement grace,
Pretty face,
Sailor's bliss,
Deadly kiss.
Deep diver,
Crest rider,
Blue sky days,
Purple haze,
Mermaid maid,
Silk arrayed.
Sapphire skies,
Noon surprise,
Stargazer,
Moon dancer.
Mermaid minx,
Her false winks,
Led to doom,
In soused room,
For love died,
And denied.
Beauty's voice,
Beauty's poise,
Cloud lover,
Sea daughter,
Mermaid mauve,
In her cove,
Radiant, 
Deep sea chant!
