The birth of a pearl
By the rippling waves she came to me,
Rising out of the foam,
Under moonlit water,
A golden beacon against the dark sky,
As clouds stirred by my command,
Lightning bolts confirming her birth,
From the foam came a pearl made into flesh,
And that of bone,
The essence of love and beauty,
Captured within her heart,
By the shoreline,
I admire what the foam created,
The future Mother of the Roman people,
I look to the sea in approval,
In thanks to what the water gave me.
