Mermaid Dreamer

I love you, daughter of mine
with all the ocean of my being

I give to you this gift encrusted with
the treasures of the sea

I wish for you all the blessings which the
waters of life can bestow upon you

In this mirror, see reflected the beauty
of your spirit and who you truly are

Remember this
The sea is your playground
Let your troubles go
Let the waves take them

Transformed into light their rays are free
to shimmer and sparkle upon the jewels
which adorn my tail

I come from the watery depths to
teach you how to dance and as we
frolic in the sea-green foam, healing
will wash over you like a gentle, sweeping
tide

I am here, here to bring you home to yourself.
