The early morning world,
a smooth, round pearl,
curled up in an oyster,
emanating a lively luster.
Enclosed within the core,
holy prayers, hopes, aspirations,
a few remnants of yore,
wanting to unfurl,
a smooth, round pearl.
Sitting quietly,
in the vast worldly ocean,
engrossed in meditation,
the early morning world,
a smooth, round pearl.
