Washed ashore
JS0037
I saw a mermaid at the beach
She seemed so near, just within my reach
The closer I moved she was much farther still
Perhaps I am dreaming this scene against my will
For I would not frighten a mermaid away
No, instead her fears I would allay
So we could meet halfway just as the sea touches the sky
And form new horizons as each day goes by
