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.

Mermaids in situation,
That is my frustration
In a gut; I'm blazing gold
But it's snowing cold

Lovers on a ride
High up in the sky
They showered gifts and many sins
To simplify their peasant lives

It's confusion riding
Tweaking my bones,
Bearing my mind with adolescent hopes
Not unlikely one could connect with

Norbury

Not long before, I had a dream
Not long after, I saw the dream

Told by a sir
His vision is the core
My unlikely hero
He told me more

The yellow face
Was more than a cloud
I saw colours than words aloud
Suddenly a pleasant dream
Or a deja-vu it seems?

Then I read it out
A truly remarkable thing
I was looking not believing how
How can I dream of something I have not seen?
Nor think I would ever will.

More absurd as it gets
The doctor told this tale
Sherlock said 'Norbury'
Was indeed his bait.
