The Siren's Song

Diving deep with the dolphins
in dreams of liquid aquamarine paradise
Searching sunken Spanish galleons
for lost gold and pearls

A mermaid's song entrances him.
He offers her a bounty of jewels and trinkets
but she cast them adrift
to navigate the sea of souls

The wind fills his sails,
setting sun shines on his face,
while she lays across the bow of the boat
and sings her song to the sea

Stars dance to the melody,
the man in the moon smiles dreamily
Night breaks over the water
Dolphins rise, to greet him again...
