Pearls

Nacreous trees reach into goldenrod skies autumn wheat hissing, envious! Tassels of crown hang, lifeless. Queen of a barren kingdom where silver suns trek horizons, never in reach for the looking glass to swallow, and reflect, inside out. Another sunrise sets all as the pearl harvest eclipses behind, the apple of her eye.
