Pearl
Guarded by the sea,
lying lonely in her bed
of silver shell.
Her disguise is sublime.
Objects of desire are rare
and hard to find...
Pearldivers, take care
I once let her slip through
my freshman hands,
so precious was she, hard to hold.
Every day i dream
about that pearl. My diver's
heart lies close to hers,
at the bottom of the sea.
