    Poem Commentary

    Sometimes we have to take a deeper look , beyond what we see on the outside, to appreciate the most beautiful inside.

    My Pearl

    My Pearl 

    With the weight of the sea on its shoulders

    Pressure beyond belief

    But in its shell it’s protected,  

    For the true treasure lies within.

     

    Layers upon layers

     Built over time

    Turning pain into something beautiful

    For the one willing to look inside.

     

    The beauty of gold and rubies

    Is always easy to see

    For their beauty is on the surface

    For all the world to see

     

    But this treasures beauty

    Lies deep within

    For the one who knows

    What to seek.

     

    Its shell may be imperfect

    Its rough edges throw you off

    But if you take the time to crack its shell

    And open it up,

    There lies, my Perfect Pearl.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
