an encounter with a myth

I missed it! the living creature looked at me for just a few seconds. I heard her, a very quiet voice like flowing water over rocks. I know it was her cause I didn't say it!It sounded as if she was crying for help[. Her beauty was exquisite! the creamy skin us women envy, her hair flowed to her waist, a greenish shimmering look, her eyes were not green but that bluish look, one that they look right through you!. But there it was in a flash she was gone,

I couldn't get her out of my mind, like a melody you hear and doesn't go away. But why did she choose me? It took a few minutes for me to realize what I saw, a mythical mermaid.Wow! me? would anyone believe me if I told them I just seen a mermaid? no guess not. For awhile I let the sight sink in the back of my head. My encounter is changing my life, this is that story.
