"Black Pearl"
A Poem by Stoutclaw

I found a black pearl on the beach
the prettiest pearl I ever did see.
I braught it to the emperor,
and to my suprise,
he let me keep it for me self,
and I rejoiced.

Once I left the someone came up and killed me.
Next I woke up in me room.
I couldn't believe it was a dream,
and then I lied down and cried.
