Necklace

All smiles at first
and then a pause
a second or so
gathering thoughts

Thoughts of a time
when life was so coarse
her smile smooths out
the edges of time

The smile will do
for now to veil
inconsolable loss
so much to conceal

Her eyes now takeover
It all spills out now
emerald eyes
spill beautiful pearls

Pearls now roll down
on shimmering cheeks
they fall to her heart
for her to keep

In time all her peace
from a beautiful source 
a necklace to wear
of beautiful pearls
