I Only Appear To Be

When The Bird Of The Heart Begins To Sing, Too Often Will Reason Stop Up Her Ears.

At First She Was Overjoyed That He Would Be With Her, But Then She Recalled That Human People Could Not Live Under The Water, And He Could Only Visit Her Father's Palace As A Dead Man.

But A Mermaid Has No Tears, And Therefore She Suffers So Much More.

Human Beings, On The Contrary, Have A Soul Which Lives Forever, Lives After The Body Has Been Turned To Dust. It Rises Up Through The Clear, Pure Air Beyond The Glittering Stars.

Every Man's Life Is A Fairy Tale Written By God's Fingers.
