I love how you put a mermaids up in the clouds, making the universe an ocean. This fantasy created many vivid visions in my head. Fluffy,puffs, notes, boat your sparse use of rhyme lends a simplicity and elegant style to something that I will now enjoy in my seascape. I can see her smiling and singing, even the seagulls, which are usually obnoxious scavengers, are smiling, and instead of annoying, their calls are musical. A treat for the senses!

    I meant dreamscape, not seascape, but I am sure that you got the idea. You are very welcome.

Very creative, the legendary mermaid is roaming her new kingdom in the heavens, sailing on clouds. You've turned the world upside down. I love it.

I love how the mermaid, a creature of the sea, decided to explore the heavens.
Excellent imagery: "soft, fluffy white puffs/surround her fish tail..."
I like the idea of seagulls flying beside the bouncing boat "...in a white wave..."
Enchanting.
Great flow, cadence.
It made me smile learning about your adventurous mermaid ;D
Great job.

Lovely and sweet fantasy poem which would charm any little girl.

She's quite unusual, this special mermaid. She travels by air! High above the ocean, seagulls her companions.

A very enjoyable and charming read : )

Very nice, and a unique idea to have mermaid enjoying a cruise through the clouds. I am curious about which came first, the poem or the picture.

Oh, I love mermaid poems! You delivered a lovely one with some amazing imagery. What delight, those words:

she sails on her magic ship
a mermaid who loves the clouds
a sea spirit roams the heavens
soft, fluffy white puffs
surround her fish tail

Loved the use of alliterations and other poetic devices.

A beautiful artwork. I enjoyed this very much.
