Wendy Rycroft Poet Rhyme

Message For the Oyster

The world is my Oyster!

I love you my darling Oyster,
Postmarked under the sea,
If you make me rich my dear,
You can marry me!
I'll collect all your precious pearls,
Then travel around the world,
Oh the joy that they will bring,
Excitement!
When placed on the ring,
Looking very grand I thought,
From one mere grain of sand,
Worth millions on a string,
But what will people think,
Looking inside your shell,
Would they see the prince,
Or the beauty in the beast,
Worlds apart they might say,
With laughter and their stares,
But strange as it may seem.
Pearls are what I wear,
Hope you get my letter soon,
Love from your desire.
