A girl at Sea
A sun kissed shadow passes up there
I wonder, how odd, a girl with green hair
A sea crystal mirror shows who I am
A girl, a sister, the sister of Sam
So different, so strange, this girl wears my face
The same, the same, the locket of lace
My skin has a bluish tint
My eyes, so gray, casting a hint
A boat above, someone looking in
This someone is spying, surly a sin
Who is this someone, this someone looking in?
Who is it, who is it, this boy looking in?
A little closer he gazes down at her
A girl who’s waiting, a child called mer
A wave, much higher than should be
That boy, he slipped, he fell into me
I open my mouth and sing my sweet song
Declaring, the sea can do no wrong
A cloud of bubbles cast about us two
When that boy, slipped from the ship into blue
Awed and in wonder, he somehow found me
I took his hand and swam with fast urgency
All because of the emergency
He laid out across the sand
His expression grateful for the land
