Pearl
by Carmen H Gray
The future is yours my darling
An open field that runs horizontal
To your brightest light that reflects
Spread out from the prism of your mind
Perhaps you couldn’t see it my love
Obscured by its very enormity or your own
Running past the well-favored wild heather
Pearl white, emblem of luck and protection
It matters not the tumbles taken, my darling
Only that you keep pressing onward
With certain pauses along the way
For even in hushed stillness
Lies undeniable evolution
One response to “Pearl”
tears of joy shed for this beautiful poem for a beautiful young woman.
