Fabulous! Intriguing point of view, carried out in a wondrous flow of language.
Beautiful poem that immediately captures all the attributes of these little white magic balls-dark and light. My wife's been stringing pearls for about a week now and I'm fascinated by the little buggars, though after reading your poem I may advise her to treat them with caution! Great work.
dark beautiful poem
A conspiracy of pearls! I loved how you highlighted the basic flaw behind the beauty of the pearl and took it to its ultimate consequences.
