Of Pearls to Kisses 10,696 days give or take another few, together, once forever thought my life to be, spent shared with you... Over now, it won't take long to dissipate what once had been. 90 days could be the length, if all is "all", the feel within. Amazing how so little means can take away, and steal a life. Replacement seems so simple too, losing self, the title "wife". What doesn't show, in words I pen expressioned smile, to outside world. Too tired, tears have dried their flow, I wear my future, in necklace pearled. Each one will represent a day, each knot that follows, strengthens heart. Strung together, ivory gift the pearls of June, new life to start. Though cultured pearls are fragile-like in tender hands, they'll hold their own. Will last the years, times 30 more each pearl a dream, of pleasures sown. There'll come a day, when kisses, yours, will take the place of cultured feel. I'll wear them proudly, sight unseen By only two, from loving real. ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Nicely penned. It made me think of some biblical wisdom...Do not cast your pearls before swing. This to me supports your use of pearls in talking about a right, tender, lasting relationship. Well done! |

When we realize how bright the future can be if we let it then it is easy to see how the reflections of the past can conjure up these feelings. Wonderful write from beginning to end. |

That word was "swine, swine, swine" hmmmm, just testing, thought maybe someone put a 'g' on my 'e' key. At least I think you know what I meant anyway. |

Excellent writing here. I loved the metaphor of the string of pearls as your future...made from tears of the past... loved it. Many hugs here lady! |
