Swamp Thing
Limerick for a muse in the lonely swamp world, transported in a famous painting

The Birth of Venus Painting by Sandro Botticelli
Shimmering as stardust, painted eggshell white
I stand before your re-birth, mortal, contrite
Clamshell pearl, I yank and heave as you can subtly through the stubbornly shut shell see
I Cannot get this darn thing open, please, Swamp Thing, Forgive me!
Jaws of life, please help me find my true love, to help us reunite!
