They Live In the Deep

They are sought after by Queens more than diamonds and gold; they live in the Deep chocked by seaweeds enduring extreme cold... I have one as a safe keep! They are the joy of elegant women who display them to conquer men; sometimes they pensively sit by the ocean and dream of kisses and happiness by holding them in their hands... whispering tender phrases to the blazing sunset! I made a necklace with forty-six pearls and gave to a sweet, green-eyed girl who was unlucky in love, and seeing her flowing tears drip on them I was stunned: they resembled stars of another Universe; and while she caressed those yellow and white roses on the window-sill... she was happy to be seduced by something so diverse!
