Pearl Diver
ย
ย O slippery pearl please grant some profit to my touchย ย
ย in silver foam, a tinge of amber; I did see you blush
ย now I behold you clearly nestled sweetly in your shell
ย and joy tickles laughter, though no sound I can expel
โฆ ย
ย Sweeter than breath, your skin shimmers beyond fantasyย
ย Descending past the murky corridors opening to me
ย This sudden bliss, where my flesh feels new discoveries
ย pleasure is the clothes I wear, my spirit sings a revelry
โฆ.
deeper yet deeper, down where the โgreat whitesโ play
ย corrals form dead menโs fingers; a message to convey? ย ย
now my eyes see flashing lights compelling me to run ย
Clenched fist, breathless horror, I quicken my ascension ย
ย โฆ
O mother of the watery depths, such gratitude I render,
ย Life, and a pearl of great price, to me you did surrender

My Dear Brother Poet Chris,
I dive to depths of danger, to seek the rarest pearl;
I'm down there many minutes, deep seas are my whole world!
The farther my descent is, the greater treasure be;
I pray the Lord protect me, and the skies again I see!
Peace and Love,

O such a captivating piece.... brilliantly written....This is beautiful Chris....Enjoyed it
wow, thank you so much for saying such a sweet thing, Rose, you are too kind
It's those last two lines that sealed it. ย It was like that first date, the tease..the dance...the butterfly stomach...then the sweet...long but tender kiss... sigh...

the 'mysterious' Tracey Sivek, and those discerning eyes of yours, yes, this poem may be about a lot of things, but it sure ain't about 'underwater diving' lol, hey, poetry is the magic key that brings alive the things you 'see'.....greetings and salutations to the poetess, and thank you for your interesting comment D ย
