Once Upon A Midnight Hour

I saw a sailboat
in the harbor  
above the fog    
and further west,  
I saw the lighthouse  
at it's best.  
   
A Hanging moon  
was out in sight  
across the ocean  
pure delight.  
 
I saw a mermaid  
come up to see  
right there she was  
in font of me.  
 
I watched two whales  
play hide and seek  
a hermit crab  
was off his feet.  
 
Made out of stars    
and moonlit rays  
a rainbow shines    
it's like a maze.  
 
A pleasant smile    
was on my face  
alive with nature  
I found my place.  
 
The sky was bright    
the moon hung low  
the air was crisp    
the water cold.  
 
I sat there looking  
into the night  
I wish I may    
I wish I might
