THE Mermaid Will Not Sing

THE MERMAID WILL NOT SING
Ten thousand leagues down the sea
the mermaid has gone and lying still.
Her bed of ocean has wrapped her around
in peace and a tranquil ease.
She will no longer hear the sailors and the passers by.
Like the peals of the brass temple bells
dipped in waters of a vessel green
her songs will float to the surface of the sea
when the night is silent and the ocean sings           Image credit : +Fabien Todescato
