Pearls

 Hidden Pearls await discovery

their flesh gleams white and pure

Locked in an oyster’s hardened shell

How long must they endure?

A slice of curiosity, a swing of fate

They are released from prison’s door

To proudly shine upon the skin

Of a Lady, so demure. 

Hope like Fire

Kindle the Flames of Hope

For Joy is in the Fire

Which Burns for 

Unfulfilled Dreams 

Fear

 Scared like a Child

I close my eyes Shut,

Afraid to face fears

Wanting to run away

But I Must,

Gather the courage to persevere 

Keeping my faith 

I continue

I Trust.
