Mermaid

August 4, 2015

Freedom

This is all she knows

Who cares that she can't be above ground

She ignores the oppression and rules

Of dry land

She ignores the fact that nature has imposed its laws on dry land

And she continues to fly gracefully below the surface of the water

Diving deep or flying high

Whichever she chooses

she spins and flips in such happiness

I enjoy her

I envy her

I want to go down with her

And be as free as she is

So we can forever spend time together

In the freeness of the waters sky
