Seven Mermaids

Seven Mermaids

(I just had a seven day retreat for mermaids in women's bodies who I flew into Hawaii from around the world.
Most have never met another woman like themselves. For their pictures and more,
see my facebook page facebook.com/williamrmistele )

1.
Among the waves she plays,
With ease
She attains fame.
Amid the coiling wave
Is the essence of her being—
Where bliss meets stillness
Serena is her name

2.
Find her
She is wild as the Northern Lights
Look for her
Amid the frozen cold
Silent Arctic night
She is there
Shining as bright
As sunlight
Burning in ice.
Though human born
Her soul is mermaid form
Fame is hers to claim
For among the seven
She is strongest.

3.
Waterfalls on black rock cliffs
Mountain pools
Cool, calm, at peace
She is within every one of her friends
Healing, renewing,
She makes us all one.
Among the masters of mankind
Who try to master fate
Not one loves
With such innocence
Or such grace

4.
Amid the sea
Silvery serene
Water and moonlight
A mermaid sings of peace—
Of an absolute contentment
One with the universe
Should she find her voice again
Now as she walks among us
The human race
Shall cast off its hatred, fear, and greed
Wars shall be no more
And we shall ascend
Having at last discovered
First hand
That heaven is within us.

5.
Can mist dancing on rippling waves
In the morning breeze
Take on human shape?
Can it sing with such ease?

Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Why are you here?

I have come to share
That love is everywhere
It reigns even here
Under the worst conditions of life—
My gifts
Are not gold, frankincense, and myrrh
But beauty, peace, and bliss
Is this not the final test
For those who would be free?

In the morning light
With a gentle breeze
You will see me
As mist dancing upon rippling waves
But here
In me you see
A love that knows no below or above
But only the moment of giving
That meets another's need.

6.
Star born
Mer-Angel
Now mermaid in human form
Float on the ocean sea
And you will perceive
The nature of her being—
Relax, let go, dissolve into the water
Become the sea
And now discover
This sea is love
And that this water is she
In her presence
There is neither you nor I nor we
But only oneness as a way of being
She has come from the stars
With the authority
To set men free.

7.
For the seven
And all other mermaids under heaven
She is guardian
Overall she reigns
Great mastery she has attained
Like the mermaid queens themselves
Anything of, within, or that water touches on earth
Is within her consciousness
Though she embodies compassion
Beware mankind if you cross her lines
Her power is beyond human understanding

I've seen a few people on this board who are Trolls in men's bodies, but never a mermaid
