Oh beauty, beauty, what do you seek?
Adrift you come to take a peak.
Tis June the month you do embark,
I long to see your body stark.
Fair mermaid of the golden sea,
why do you bless the likes of me.
Mine eyes are full of radiant pleasure.
What say you your body measure
Luminous eyes seek a miracle,
lying still on earths great circle.
I beg of you fair mermaid.
Feast your eyes on the likes of me.
Your tail of iridescent treasure,
glistens like glitter from the jeweled sky.
Fair mermaid please don’t pass me by.
A paradox is your faithful dominion
You can’t be who you seem to be.
Nestled upon the shore.
Feast your eyes on the likes of me.
I’ll rest here with you for evermore.
