Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required As the life of the day nears its last breath, With a glow of crimson, forewarning its death, Upon its cresting, the reflection, daunting, The sea sets free a beauty, haunting The depths of its treasures of unknown span, The Queen Of Pearls, secluded from man. This queen, a beauty of figure, a maiden so fair, With glistening gold locks finer than Pele's hair And eyes that blend with her homing sea green, Lips sweeter than honey for a honeycomb's queen, Once a fortnight, this Queen Of The Sea, As Mr. Moon swoons, she comes for me. I wander each eve along the sea's shore, When near is the time, I long, live for, Watching intently for the tell tale sign Of soon again, she will be mine. Though my patience is tried over many a night, I know very soon the time will be right. "Will I see her again; will she come out?" Puncturing my heart with needles of doubt, Is fear I'm pained with before each time we meet, As though and worse than gripped by mesquite. Then as the tide comes in, over the incoming foam, For an auspicious clue, my eyes desperately roam. The sign, the signal, I must not miss For I can taste so sweet her magical kiss. My heart couldn't take the grief of such woe, If I were to become no longer her beau. The pressure is on, for surrounding me Is somewhere a message, elusive, a mystery. Each time the message comes in by way of unique, For I must earn and prove I'm worthy to seek This maiden so fair of beauty unsurpassed And continually I must, if our Love is to last. Only one common factor am I to ever know; A pearl will appear, in some way show. Her signature, a pearl, confirms her request And one of the finest, only the best. My Love is not just a queen of the deep sea; She is the Queen Of Pearls, her royal majesty. Sometimes I wonder why it is I she chose, But it's a secret kept, for the sea only knows. Once a seagull brought and dropped one in the sand, From the sky above, next to me to on purpose land. Another time, a sea lion rolled in with the tide And flipped a pearl to me as he winked with pride. Yet, another time, I was beckoned out into the sea, By a whale that spouted a pearl then straight to me. As my anxiety grows to an unbearable state And just when I feel I can no longer wait, With flippers anchored and a look of daring, In a coat of gold, his mischief, baring, I knew at once that what I sought Was now before me with a troubling thought. For I knew a challenge he had predesigned, To acquire this pearl would take wit of mind. Since my heart's condition was at stake, I had no room for error nor one mistake. What would be tempting too much for him; Catch him off guard to forfeit the gem? Through files of thoughts I ran a quick scan, Searching to find the one fool proof plan. Then he made a face at me and straight away It triggered a thought from a yesterday, When Andre, the seal, harboured a 'tude, He stuck out his tongue and blew to be rude. So, like Andre I leaned in and did the same, At the seal's face, I took a precise aim. I stuck out my tongue and blew in his face. Surprised, he hadn't time to against me, brace. The temptation too great, he returned the favour And the pearl became mine only to savour. Though he was unhappy he had been tricked, I was elated as my dilemma had been licked. With all my strength, clenched in my fist Was my ticket to passion when I was kissed By my maiden of Love to meet on the pier, Where soon now I knew she would appear. As though on wings, my feet did fly To the pier in waiting where at last, I Would be joined in Love with my queen, As soon as she appeared upon the scene. When I arrived, she was waiting there To rise out of the sea, my maiden, fair. As she rose, I pulled her so close to me And as we locked our lips, she magically Transformed into a lady, full human form, Extraordinary and far from norm. We danced, made Love; laughed and cried, Baring all of our emotions from inside. No moment was wasted, no second in time, In sync we were with both rhythm and rhyme. But time flies by too quickly it seems, When you're with the only star of your dreams. All too soon a new day was being born And a sun of gold was greeting the morn. As she stood on the pier elegantly dressed, All onlookers couldn't have ever guessed That my lady, my queen, lived in the sea And transformed back, she soon would be. As we were saying our sad good-bye, A flock of witnesses then flew by. Letting her go each time to return to the deep, Is harder than the promise to her I made to keep. Though I'm elated with joy, new memories made, I must again for a fortnight through longing, wade. As she slips quietly back into the waiting sea, My tears like rivers, shower her adoringly. The returning back to my homing place, With my tears washing my distraught face, I clutch the pearl, the precious stone, And seek only now with myself to be alone. Since there's nothing better than the best, I can only look forward to her next request. I hear a persistent knock upon my door, As I awaken, for me, someone's looking for. At first confused, I glanced around, As again came that knocking sound. "What a dream of fantasy. Wow!" I thought. But then a pearl from my dream along I'd brought...
