Wording Blood : verse

I word the blood that freed our land

                      breathing opens minds which are 

partly insane

The watery pearl

I was on the verge of 
Laying my bare sole 
Upon a patch of grass 
My eyes noticed it
Amidst some 
Green stripes 
With no fanfare 
A round,  watery pearl
Your earlobes 
At the time so lovely 
For a fleeting second
By the way 
Where are you currently 
We meet to part with 
Candle to get extinguished

Pearl in a Riptide

Gift and passion 
a pearl caught up in a riptide of sadness
an aurora of blue and green.
Can you make it passed the dream breakers 
over the reef and back onto shore

Nobody embraces those that live on the tassel
you can't embrace something spinning at the speed of light
how long can you live on the rim of

Janice Pearl Joplin

Deep down inside her earthen throat
God fashioned a pearled railroad...
Her freight train soul gifted the world
a bouquet of thorns and blue hearted roses.
An existence of devilish fire and heavenly rain
Shot glasses of needles and stem rose champagne.

The Pearl

Heavy is the head that holds the crown 
I desire to be his purple peace
When the world is beating him down
May he know he can come to me

I’ll kiss away your turquoise tears
And block all the negativity
Together we will face white fears
And create consistent chocolate peace

The heart of a man is a priceless Pearl 
That

Years Ago

Looking back on my younger days
and in that summer haze
you were the pearl my girl
in my oyster the whole wide world
so many memories
of you me and how we used to be
but of photographs far too few
altho' we did have a laugh a two
now all growing dim and grey
with the fading shades of day
etched in my

Pearl Waters

Pearl Waters 
No shoes 
Two souls flying parallel 
Just bare foot in the sand 
Pearl waters fluent 
Souls running free 
Sky indigo glowing 
Silver ripples amazed 
Zenith mesmerized 
Celestial emerald lands divided 
Open winds collide 
Your the one who stands beside me 
Grow old together heavenly 
Take in the moment 
No one can ever replace

Pearl

Matthew 13:46 “Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.”

secreted, within
in my innermost life
where the best stories start
is a lifetime – of memories and grace,
joys that will never replace
the music that settles here,
reassuring and soothing
inspiring me to believe in the beautiful
sound of hope

My heart of Pearl

A burdened mind strolls an empty street
A pendulum in vacuum forever swings.
A soulless me finds solace in suffering,
A bankrupt balance my life ledger brings.

Discovering depths from a wishing well
It's not a straight life, but an intricate maze.
I  take the outline of the empty square 
and patiently paint colours, blending glaze.

A meadow full of roses...no

Earl the Squirrel

there is a squirrel named Earl
who came out of his nest in a burl
it was said one day
he went out to play
and found something better than pearls

In the deep silence of the evening, I remember her needs hidden like a pearl in the shell of time

In the deep silence of the evening, I remember her needs hidden like a pearl in the shell of time,
the same as yours and mine, never forgotten, never postponed by the wind of oblivion,
a dream that blooms like a flower of light at dawn, carrying promises of infinity and hope,
a desk where ideas take wing

Pearl misbehaves, throws fits, rants and raves

     If Pearl misbehaves
     throws fits, rants and raves
     What of the parents who raise her

     If Johnny can’t read
     or do simple math
     What of his teachers who instruct him

Polish Your Pearl

Written By:  D. Collins 3/27/25



Find what comes easy and keep doing it.
Move it to the top of your to-do list.
Nourish it along with some passion and zest.
Before long, you might rate as one of the best.


Inject some soul into it and really cut loose.
Let your talent bling like some spit-shined boots.
Constantly polish that gift
