Seal Mother A Selkie Tale in Verse

One lonely seal

in the midst of the ocean

rolls on the waves

to the rhythmical motion.

The seal watches over

the child on the sand.

Her lovely young daughter

born of the land.

On Midsummer’s Eve seals swim up onto the sand, shed their skin and transform into beautiful young women to give thanks to the mysterious Moon Goddess.

Lost in dance, no one notices a shimmering sealskin being stolen; leaving one beautiful Selkie trapped on the land forever.

Can an unlikely friend help her reclaim her skin, or is she destined to remain forever in human form?

‘Seal Mother’ - a magical Selkie tale of love, loss and deceit, beautifully illustrated and told in verse.
