Treasures Forever Hidden

Stirring sea green waters Shifting sand finding flesh Tides come and go Moonbeams glow As smooth perfect pearls grow For thousands of years it has been so But the lucky ones find their way To the magical places far away Those waters forbidden Where treasures stay forever hidden ©Donna Jones
