SIX TINY MERMAIDS

By Josie Whitehead

Six Tiny Mermaids
Blue Fish

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.
