"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take."
Proverbs 3:5-6


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.

There's plenty of sense in nonsense, if you wish to look for it.

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! :)
