Re-found this one recently and thought it would be fun to share.
The Fish Angel
As I walked beside the sea
I saw a girl with golden hair
As I passed she looked at me
As though I weren’t there.
She leapt into the waves
Like a mermaid child
Seeming nearly as brave
but not quite as wild.
There was grace in her motion
As she dodged the water’s flow
And the cold of the ocean
Set her eyes and cheeks aglow.
I watched her every moment
Of the quickly passing day
And then she tossed me coral
And swiftly swam away.
