"The Price of Pearls" a strange time just as a dream to a place of strangeness strangers walking contretemps' fine lines composing invisible footprints away from life into the loud silence within The Chronicles of The Forgotten lost in the mists oars plunging grave tomes in The Tombs of Sad Poetry some gently fierce soft grey broken bad blue sky reflected in a lake of tears a sense of haunting romance to allay impending fears acknowledging minds for a short while dipping deep within the short measured confronting uncomfortable pools of sincere welcomes some sin playing the forgotten heart strings light sensitive fingers pluck violins reeling in the pleasure swoon swimming the skinny time with cool investiture the Siren sings dropping chords divesting smiles, a serious business arresting life, love and lust sensual eyes read his for good measure where diaphanous pages drop like silken Selkie skin naked she swims to shore clutching a fistful of pearls wisdom comes at the price of freedom lost in the depths of drowning all the ghosts dead reborn in his eyes, they are Her glistening new Ocean now her feet planted on the sure Now the Lark Ascending She opens the locked door symphonic pleasure maestro is leading (LadyLabyrinth / 2020) Rachmaninov: "The Isle of the Dead" Symphonic Poem Op. 29 - Andrew Davis https://youtu.be/dbbtmskCRUY Vaughan Williams: "The Lark Ascending" https://youtu.be/ZR2JlDnT2l8 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selkie
