Mermaids Dream


"The way to the sea", written by J.C. Fennessy, first published by Herbert Jenkins in 1950.

Mermaids in the sea
I found myself not following
Towards the bank; I swim
Where my redheaded lover awaits for me

I will always remember his smile,
Brightest with wired specs.

He guides me up
I followed him
Towards the sun we go
Happiness shines aglow

I wait for him everyday
At his study
For a ride home
My lover comes back
I'll never be alone

He holds my hand
Offering hope
With sunglasses on
My tears; I'll hold.
