The Pearl...








 The Pearl 
                          When I am old I will write a pearl.
The pearl will be 25,000 miles wide
Because it will circle the world
In one second.
It will be the smallest thing
Which can do that.
Small as a pea under 20 mattresses.
That is why it will be a pearl.
Then the world will know
What it has lost and forgotten.
And I will be gone.
