Pearls scattered across
The silky sky, framed by the
Largest pearl of all.

A light in the dark,
The moon shines like a diamond
Hope for the nations

The other night, I was looking out of my window, and the almost-full moon shone a pure white, and it was so beautiful, it reminded me of a pearl.

This is purely beautiful. I've never thought of the moon being a pearl or a stone before. It's more of a guiding light when there is none. But this is a job well done.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

This is absolutely, beautiful! I love it. Haha, the funy thing is that I almost, always thought of the moon and the stars as precious stones. I absolutely, love this poem. It's so simple yet filled with such beauty and power. You have such a talent and greatness and light in you, my friend;you are a wonderful and talented writer and person. It's all, so true; it just is. Thank you so much, my friend for sharing this! :)
