A Strand of Pearls

Angel R. Favazza

A strand of pearls
Oval, snowy spheres
Gleaming with pure luster
Against a delicate, ivory neck.

Noise-cold,
Water rushing, a weightless diver
Cracks orb away from nature
And happy darkness.

A lone luminous pearl
Powerless-
Gathered, tagged, priced
One radiant treasure of opulence.
