Casting of Pearls ....Jenny Wren
The Pearl is made from one grain of sand buried deep inside of the oyster, it hides In a constant distress of the misplaced land produces encasement, by oyster's insides it's gathered by seaman, this treasure rare then it's kept in store for the whim of man for trading, for trinkets, it's good anywhere think of treasure, from 'one grain of sand' So don't cast your pearls before the swine they'll only be trampled in a muddy mire The swine's value unlike yours and mine self-satisfaction is the 'pigs' one desire It knows not that your pearl is a treasure even while lying there beneath it's feet because food is a pigs number one pleasure what good is a Pearl? it's no good to eat! Casting of Pearls is like seeds being sown will find empty places in one human heart some ' seeds-of-wit' will become full grown some destined to fail, even ere' they start These Pearls-of-wit they will now be spread sometimes a receiver, will not understand Some seed will grow-up, in Wisdom’s warm bed being cast from the mind of a poet's-hand. ================ Matthew 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
