Love paints the sand
on winds of indescribable ecstasy
brush-stroking the width and breadth of her
light
Love that indescribable element
formed and captured in whimsy
like moments when a shadow smiles
all the while loosing direction.
Deep beneath the midnight blue
inside the breath of a seashell's
mouth, you drink me in and spin me
'round, whirling while spinning a
treasured gem.
Gritty to the touch of teeth
running along the edge of seamless
beads, tantalizing and immortalized...
colours far in range: black the hidden...
mystery of untold wealth
pink the universal symbol of love
or simply the mesmerizing "pearl"
the color of true love.

Eh... well... I think that this was very deep... a wonderful poem indeed that is without doubt at least silver worthy.... My only dislike was all the pink... It didn't really go i don't think... other than that this was great.
