Sense Sonnet - Tickler

 Exposure

MerMom and MerDad did raise their

Mermaid daughter in sheltered way,

Giving lots of parental care,

But she was not allowed to play

Anywhere very far from home.

One day busy her parents were,

The mermaid decided to roam

Out to see more sea world for sure.

She saw something her parents had

Tried hard to keep out of her sight,

Not because it was mean or bad,

But be embarrassing it might.

The mermaid a blushing did be,

'Cause a ship's bottom she did see.
