They reached the fields and were astonished to see the decrepit estate br The master's tending care was gone, the field was overgrown and wild br They sighted him in a corner with overgrown hair and a dishevelled state br Approaching him, the disguised mermaid looked at him and smiled br br O Adonis, We are passing by in this island and need shelter to stay the night br Can you take us in for a day and we shall be gone tomorrow br He could never say no to anyone being a true gallant knight br He took the two ladies in, house looking in a state of sorrow br br Darkness soon came upon them and the ladies retired to their room br He went out to drink in the darkness near the sea.....his soul in a state of unrest br In the milky whiteness of moonlight, he thought he saw an angel loom br In a translucent white dress, it was his guest heading west br br Moving sensuously, she almost glided towards the sea br Poetry in motion, beauty to kill for.....she was every man's dream br Stopping at his arm's length she said ' My life is for thee' br Marry me and I promise I will illuminate your life like a sun beam br br He said I am a dead man and only my love can come and make me alive br She is my breath, she is my passion, she is my life br You shall make any man proud but my life will get revived br Only by one woman in this world, only she can be my wife br br As he said these words....thick clouds covered the moon br And as it slowly got uncovered he saw that it was his very mermaid in front of him br Unbelievingly, he touched her face and it was really her...and she swooned br Into his arms.....getting locked in an embrace.You know what, miracles do happenbr br Renu Rakheja a.k.
