Wonderful sensations and a
sense of beauty came over me
as I lay alone on the beach
The water washing gently
over my feet soothing my nerves
and letting me fall into a deep sleep
I wake up to the hazy sunrise
and the soft lapping of the ocean next to me
I look down and find that my legs
had turned a lovely shade of green,
but rigid with gills
I had become a lonely mermaid
