Mermaid Poem by RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL

i was sitting in the beach,
Forlorn and sad since
My love has left me for good
For another guy, more masculine
Rich millionaire, me thinking
How life could so ditching
When a beautiful damsel
Swam ashore, Alas,
But with tail fin instead of legs
Sat near by me, fell into
Conversation about me
And her sealife, where
Her lover ditched her
for another beautiful one,
We meeting everday
In the evenings, caring
For each other nursing
Each others feelings,
Falling in love without knowng
Kissed deeply one day,
Tumbling on the surf,
But alas, again, not able
To mate toghetehr
Sperated with sorrow
But keep our love going
For times we don't know will end.
