Premium Member I feel my skin opening, like an oyster revealing its fragile pearl
I feel my skin opening, like an oyster revealing its fragile pearl, The sweet cocoon of sixteen years has cracked, releasing the sour butterflies of seventeen, "Sour" seems the right word, the natural opposite of the sweet dream that has shattered, I ponder this change as the February sunbeams seep into my soul, Flooding my beating heart with their...

Premium Member The blue oyster
It was just like before riding my bicycle along the beach my tire rolls right over a star fish braising bump and scratches on my knee the gulf was thirsty for human blood this year as the manatees floated belly up the pelicans shivered with empty beaks again the school of sharks gathered while the...

Premium Member What of A Pearl?
The wonders of a salted spec, an intruder of the calm, slip secretly by slightest surge into some open being, drawn. Creation in the making by no jeweler of this world. Hidden from the human eye, perfect forming of a pearl. Some oysters blessed and gifted by nacre’s strong defense, calcify these precious gems, sought at great expense. And when in valued luster to adorn a woman...

“All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.” - Federico Fellini Scars, reminders What was once painful, Has changed to a special flaw, Sometimes only a hint, Subtly secreted, the blame Beneath a thought, a whisper Singing to the spirit, Colored in rose and gentle, Comforting the heart Who listens, the blemish, Revealing the hidden Heart, the music of a soul, Who dances with the...

Premium Member A Pearl
An oyster felt an uncomfortable itch Caused by a stinging sand grain. Ten fathoms deep, he slowly made - a pearl, So that he was free from pain. A tenacious Japanese ama, dove, This mermaid beauty 'neath the tide, Unbreakable, with just a knife and grit - A pearl - she deftly pried. A dream of a lovely...

Premium Member Like A Pearl
Sometimes awkward, In the company of a moment, a friend Who has revealed to me, her bitterness, Her cynicism, hostility, resentment… Feelings lost within a world of darkness. Never will I pray for her anything except joy, I hope that blessings flow over her, Like an endless cup of smiles and wonder, A grace that clings to heart and soul, A gentling that silences...

Disappearance
DISAPPEARANCE Light baptised my forsaken body red whirling a glimmering ocean Perseidon’s crystalline tears drip-dropped into mine manifesting oyster shells Odysseus smiled blinking compassion from diamond rays of Arcturus embalming my shoulders with his terrible travels Silent my soulmate disappeared crawling onto an opposite bank into fields of chaffed wheat towards abyss black She moulted into grains of rice...

Zinc In Meals
With this substance a lot to link, If only one would clearly think But nothing between Zinc and school’s ink Nor voyaging vessels that sink: Perhaps the gray of oysters, not pink… We all should crave the mineral Zinc. You ask me to explain i’ll blink But a doctor gives you a wink Of guys about to glasses clink: ‘Please,...

Premium Member The World Is My Oyster
The world is my oyster I've heard it said Not a fan of oysters how about chocolate instead Or delicious french fries smothered in ketchup For an omelette with home fries, early I'd get up Do you feel a theme running through my words Not addicted to the yummies, that's totally absurd Granted they sometimes take over my thoughts But so does...

Premium Member A Hurdle Race
Life is like a hurdle race Tangible and invisible hurdles In your way Even a childhood dream isn't simple If you have passed all the hurdles The world will be your oyster But sometimes as you look back You found that you have failed some And you didn't jump the last hurdle Because the whistle blew And already time's up...
