SIX TINY MERMAIDS

Six Tiny Mermaids

Six tiny mermaids
   Riding on the waves;
Diving down amongst the fish
   And hiding in sea caves.

Six tiny mermaids
   Playing all day long,
And if you’re at the seaside
    Please listen for their song.

Six tiny mermaids, 
   Tired at end of day, 
Swim home to waiting parents
    Across the quiet bay.

Six tiny mermaids,
   Tucked up in their beds, 
Rocking in their tiny shells,
    Soft pillows ‘neath their heads.

Goodnight tiny mermaids -
     Sleep well till break of day -
Then when the sun returns again,
      You’ll return  to play.
