Free Cee Dedicated To a Lady Who In Vienna We Were Poetry

i found her on a beach in belize if you please just sunning herself and taking in the sights and sounds of the gulls watching ships past by with steady courses set and sturdy hulls the sun dripped from her shimmer as i sat blinded by her glimmer she showed me what was beyond the shore and so much more she pointed to the horizon where blue meets the darkness at night there she sat contemplating mankind's possible destruction and plight her beauty shone like the sun i tried to hide my eyes from viewing and being beautiful is all she was doing and in so doing telling a story that was a warning to all telling humanity to answer her fervent call all she wanted was to lay on the beach unafraid of what was to arrive if all of us didn't get together and learn to mutually survive no waste to last for a million or more years no more wars born out by tepid tears no destroying the balance of nature of which she was too aware as she sat by her father Neptune's lair her mother shone as did the daughter i speak of born from a family of peace, tranquility and of course love so as the gulls flew by and their chicks learned to fly i continued to watch the ships past by sturdy and strong and no one can convince me that her assertion was wrong for most assuredly this was no ordinary girl because this beauty was born of an oyster and her name was pearl (c) 2012....PHREEPOETREE ~free cee!~
