Pearl Diving (w/ a hidden meaning)

by Leni - Gemini

Go diving for pearls
Mt trusted sea-mate.
Slip on your wet suit
And plunge right in
To those southern seas
And be sure to send plenty
Of your best sea men
Crawling through the narrow cave
Do not be discouraged
If you have to go back and forth
And even re-enter again and again.
Finally, when you find the clam
Pry it open with grace
And take the pearl with pride.

Reason for writing:

    It started out as a joke between me and a best friend from high school, and I turned it into a poem.
