I truly enjoyed this wonderful mermaid story/poem. I do wish they could make real contact though. I think she had true feelings for him. That was nice of her to send fish his way.
Maybe someday there will be a part 2? Very Sincerely, Vonnie

    Thanks so much for buying my book, and I hope you love it all. This week I am buying your book. I know I shall love it. We have to get busy on our pumpkin girls. I have been distracted because I am going to have a gallbladder operation soon. Love Vonnie

Well your overactive imagination isn't wasted on this girl. I love the sea and mermaids and this write. I especially lied this:

she smiles as he leaves
her world of watery thoughts
a woman-fish who adores
her man from afar

I thoroughly agree-it is amazing having an overactive imagination. Beautiful imagery of the ocean and the mermaid. Love the descriptive words and the rhymes that you sprinkled here and there. Lovely poem.

You have a great description of how the fisherman is calmed by the ocean. You have a picturesque presentation of the mermaid's interest in the man. How nice that she sends fish his way. She senses his determination and that's her way of helping him. It seems that she adores the man from afar, and he inspires her song. It's lovely that she returns to the beach from time to time in hopes of seeing him. Very lovely, and delightful portrayal of the mermaid. judi
