Pearl

The sea’s passionate kiss

Rushing in until all is full of salt and spray

Held tight in secret embrace

Tasted, treasured, kept hidden from all

Sheltered until pried out

Plucked and polished and caressed to gleam

Set atop a molten crown

Clutched tight in mysterious grasp

Such a small little moon

With hidden colors glistening

Subtle lights reflecting

Off of the creamy milk surface
