Pearl of the Swirling Sea and Moon

Beyond the lens of understanding

            Transcendent to the haven of
                 
                    Oceans lies the perfect jewel

              In the abyss of blue depths

          This gem illuminates in

Perfect roundness

       Of hard pallid ash
 
                    Glazed with a

                Touch of

     Angels breath

           For its soft glow

                         Of diffused silver swirls

                         A radiant, ambient contrast

                       As light to the darkest waters

               For the treasure seeker to uncover

The epitome sister to the opaque moon
