No Need To Explain

 No Need To Explain


She rose adroitly from the waves

Water dripping from everywhere

A mermaid come to life

Strode up the beach totally self aware


She stared deep into my eyes 

Told my fortune without a word 

Slipped her hand into mine 

Giving me a note that had to be heard 


She wrapped herself in her shawl 

Easily strolled far down the beach 

Not a care in the world 

Reflections until she was out of reach  


I looked on in great amaze 

My eyes shifted to shaking hands 

No doubt she asked me out 

Left a phone number to help me understand


I am but a simple man 

A bit naive in my manner

When I looked at my hand  

I already knew what would occur 


So here does not end this tale 

All questions raised are answers gained 

My heart beats rapidly 

Such a lovely girl no need to explain
