On the Water

See her dance upon the water
Just a nymph
The ocean’s daughter
See it sparkle
With her laughter

Soulful siren as she turns
And she dips
We watchers burn
See us tremble
As we learn

See her swaying, dancing soul
Just a myth
Memory made whole
All our joys
She here extols

See her dance upon the water
Just a nymph
The ocean’s daughter
See it sparkle
With her laughter
