Precious Peridot on The Back of Honu:
Narrative Poem
The shoreline glitters with seeds of iron crystals...
Precocious peridot,
enchanting as honu swims around coral reefs.
Sandcastles shaped,
by her sympathetic hands.
With eyes like evening emeralds;
The one with the heart of magma.
She overflows with magnetism.
Remembrance for beauty,
and strength of igneous rock,l.
Fearless, enough to part the Red Sea.
Adrift on the wave a mindful gem,
carried on the froth of the ocean.
Still precious prosperous heart of peridot washed up
on the shell of a honu.
Salt marshes
lined with red poppies
For on this day,
a tears of joy, erupted
on beds of tablelands
flows
like ashes float
in the sky.
A princess was born
With eyes as rich as the soil,
to grow succulents-
And a heart as whimsical
as feather rocks.
