Humble Pearl Poem by Onalethuso Petruss Ntema

Humble Pearl



The humbled pearl
is humble like a pearl
over the distant sands,
served
to serve
its beauty to the wilderness
of them that see,
taller than
longer
to her knees
and her face carved
to a pearly curve
as she smiles humbly, and serve
the soothing eyes to the nerve,
she is my humble pearl…
she stands taller
but closer
to her woman nature
as she looks further
towards her shoulder
by the rocks over
the other
side of her distant power
like the lover
of sense than flower,
she is the humble pearl…
her shoes i couldn't see
her laces i haven't seen
her shoulder neck too
her legs i wouldn't see
her toes, i rarely see…
her hands all cottoned
to a pearly wool over stoned
distant sands on green, as cold
like the humbled pearl long told
me to take her hand and walk away…
her eyes melted before seen
her talk has shadowed her feel
her talk has narrowed her meal
her meal has swallowed her talk
her feel has shadowed her will
but her voice serenades her feel
to touch and love without ill
as she humbles me a little song in clean
her longest walk walked so still
like hidden treasures without seen
as she walked in hands to a pearly gate,
hers is a woman nature
the humbled pearl, the humble pearl…
