Pearls take time and we all know why,
But something shiny can quickly catch our eye,
And we know, too, because we have been told-
To be warned for all that glitters is not gold,
And even the sparkles of the morning dew,
Can look like glittering diamonds, too,
But the welcomed sight of the rare and unique beauty of the pearl we recognize,
And it is one of life's many real teasures hidden before our very eyes,
How rich a life for the person who finds life's pearls along the way,
And this person is aware to take time to notice them night and day,
Yes, pearls "take time" in more ways than one,
The pearl itself takes time and we, too, "take time" to look for finding beauty to happen,
And when it does --- it is because --- "pearls take time".
