Abandon.

Such a beautiful thing is a shell,
floating it sings 'tho half-empty,
sculptured for strength in excess
of accents or patterns an ecstasy
with wave-lovers has undressed
its close-partnered togetherness.

Oh shell of beauty, gone forever
your wholeness but in a sea-bed
still white your glisten measures
pace with the breakers in restless
dance of sheer abandon even yet.

We tend to see them only when they are half empty laying on the beach and forget what a wonderful sculpted piece of natural art they really are.

A lovely tribute to the humble shell Fay.. :D
