Mermaids’ Madrigal

Mermaid choir

With madrigal tale

Breaths of childish delight,

Fostering the rearing,

Enlivening the song.

Children of the sea,

Undulating

Chorus to shore,

 ‘Envy

Our freedom.

Your resolute

Stature

May never mock.’

In their wake

Grains scatter,

Seeking to follow.

Falling still.
