Pearl

First I felt the pinch of pain 
and it festered in my oyster brain
till it became a pearl...
a poem dropped into the world.

Pearls and Swine

Snuffling for truffles
Scenting morsels of delight
Delirious swine

Drowning in the oyster beds
Drunk on mysterious wine

      Young and handsome
         the world was his oyster

       ‘Til he chose to self-cloister
          ~ his oyster now a clam

The little chattering

gives me advice
get on with life
disregard the noise
the world is my oyster
just make
the right choice.

Mountain oyster stew for lunch
Lovely for an old ladies’ brunch
They down them with glee
Happy as crones can be
I do not think they have a hunch

What Price Freedom?

Lodged in oyster shell, irritating grain of sand, grows pearl of great price. Being beautiful, and imprisoned in dark shell, it longs to be free.

a slick mime had only one dime

bought a slivery pot of slime

world’s no oyster

went to a cloister

sacred graffiti thickens the crime

Beautifully Yours

I am a grain of sand; you, an oyster - 
Solely into your arms I will curl,
With your love wrap me over; layer over layer,
Transmute me into your aeonian pearl.

A Degree In Self Learning

There is a degree, 
That you can't get off the shelf,
Or buy from someone else, 
That lets the world truly become your oyster,
If you care to grow your own pearl of wisdom.

UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE

bobbing in blue waves...
oyster fishermen snatch forth
...starfish limbs lobbed off

unintended consequence 
creating newborn nation

The Full Legacy

Madam, you have your oyster in your hand
And this shell indeed may crack
It is a privilege to pledge you your pearl
Wear it well my dear, you shall never lack
The full legacy of my pain.

Exotic Pearl

rainbows pooling in the ocean
surrounded  by warm embrace of mollusk
i am beautiful,
i am glorious
again and again
touch me gentle
feel me,
exotic desire
Like an oyster
find me a pearl

The foreshadowing

A golden mote grates
on dusky blue
portent of divine excellence
radiant white nestling
in the humble nook
honed by an oyster
who unveils prized secrets
of the deep
in shadowed places.
