  A Poem is a Lovely Pearl

A poem is a lovely pearl
Formed around trials in life
Its beauty radiates in the mind
When we feel we are in strife

It sends a song of beauty
Special meaning to the soul
Brings a tear to the eye
Surge of hope that makes one whole

It sings music of desires
Of needs and loneliness
Of yesterdays and tomorrows
And all that we suppress

Such moving living words
That is borne of agony
Words that lift the soul
Bear witness to immortality

In the memory of our mind
Beauty shines eternally
And forms a human path
Of pearls to reach eternity
