Blue Pearl
Blue Pearl
Stories are told
Of lost enchanted kingdoms treasures
Of jewels beyond all measure-
Diamonds, rubies, silver and gold
Yet blue pearl fairest
Wisdom story told.
A gentle love tale
For you to hold.
On the Island
In sea foam ocean
God created
This tale of motion
Loves commotion, strong emotion.
From deep within Neptune’s caves
Mermaid sirens
Songs they gave.
To spin their magic
Enchanting swirling
Beauty delight-
A women’s eyes
Blue pearls
In his sight.
For he alone wise warrior bold
Made they she
For he it’s told
Now long below the sea she rested
While search in vain he was tested.
Given to fatigue his journey
Believed ended
Settled he on land
His garden tended.
Years did pass
All seemed well but how his pearl
Sunk toward hell
If he knew
It’s sure he’d tell.
“search again I,
for where you fell.”
But know he not
Her plight now covered
Until that day
His love discovered.
For hidden right
Beneath his eye
Buried treasure
When he heard her sigh.
And beyond his garden gate
Slept his princess fair
Soul-mate
Gleaming brightly
Under the sun
Wisdom warrior
Knew-
She’s the one
Like a feather
Up he picked
His pearl of grace,
Stoked her hair
Tender embrace.
To search no more
His soul did sigh
His sigh
Her breath of life
And together their souls did fly.
A love that’s
Pure and white and round
A hunger- desire
Both they found.
Drink they did
And fulfill loves thirst
While to fate- to- destiny
Sang their first
For heavens songs
Were heard above
When toge6ther
War to pearl
In love.
Yet to our tale
A sorry end
To brief indeed
A tear to send.
For warrior not
So wise believe
When dropped he did
His love to sea.
Now tears have filled
Her eyes of blue
With sleep ness nights
Pearl cries of you.
Pleadings blue
Cry to god above
“leave me not
so lost in love.”
“Again to sleep me
my warrior leaves
sinking deep beneath the seas.”
“Wait I will
if I must
100 years me-
find I trust.”
For he alone
Her love heart discover
In princess pearl
He find no other.
So next time
To sea you wade
Remember this tale
To you I gave
Of warrior wise
His search in vain
A princess blue pearl
His salvation Kingdoms gain
To find loves
Beauty buried
Within deep
And to drop]
Her down
And back to sleep.
It’s a folly best avoid.
For love is given to far and few
Watchful if it happens to you..
