Wise Pearly Secret
A gnarled , crusty shell
has protected her secret well
deep in the murky bottom
knowledge reach in fathom's
begin's as a sandy irritant
mother's love , a luminous lubricant
layer's upon layer's ,
until it's finally seen....
upon your hand ,
high quality sheen....
from the inside out ,
again , the true beauty within'.....
never , slightest of doubt ,
that's where it all begin's.....
Let the layer's be wise ,
not ignorance in disquise.......
