YEARNING OYSTER


 
In the dark deep depths of mighty blue ocean


Searching, seething; seeking!


For the precious mystery of the hidden pearl


Under reef and rock you have rummaged


Drawn by the current and swooned by the gyre


Oh! Nacreous Friend!


Why seek pearls when you yourself are an oyster!


What different pearl will you seek in others?


Who else will open their shell to you?


Looking all over for the precious pearl!


Oh, yearning oyster of the mind!


Don’t forget to look inside!
