A Mermaid Who Soars

by mermaids

 

 
 
she swims in the sea
with such grace
fish gather round her
it is her happy place
 
 
 
but from time to time
her heart belongs above 
magic transforms her 
becoming a white dove
 
 
 
high above the earth she soars
observing all life below
she makes mental notes 
so sea creatures will know
 
 
 
there is so much life
she teaches upon return
in descriptive detail
one must be willing to learn
 
 
 
but the feeling of gliding 
high above a watery world 
gives her powerful insight
downward she dives, knowledge unfurls

I read this poem at an open mic night at the local television station in my town. The theme was soaring so of course, a soaring mermaid arrived. I have tried repeatedly to increase the font size with no results. I do not know why the advanced editor will not work on my computer. I apologize for the small font.
