I was a mermaid. I lived in the swirling blue-green currents. I did underwater dances for the fish, caressed in seaweed shawls, kissed by sea anemones. I had a dolphin as a friend; he had merry grey eyes and the thick sleeked flesh of a god. My fingernails were like tiny shells the color of jade when light is shining though it.
My name was Isabella. I was unusual for a mermaid. Instead of the typical blue tail and blue eyes, I had an emerald green tail and deep chocolate brown eyes with the same emerald green on the edges of the irises.
But that life was so long ago; it's been years since I have been called Isabella or even seen a dolphin.
If you wish for me to continue this fic, please tell me what you think of it.
