THE PEARL
As I strolled along the beach,
The sand squelching through my toes,
I spied a shell of wondrous shape,
A real treasure I did suppose.
I opened it and inside
A beautiful pearl there glowed.
I scooped it out to make a ring
When it to a jeweller I showed.
A pearl of such beauty
He had never seen,
Placed it in a graceful setting
That really set the scene.
I placed the ring on my true love’s hand,
It was a noble gesture.
‘Twas really well set off by
Her slinky black night vesture.
A fun poem with a word I had to look up for the definition! lol Meter to me needs some more work to smooth the flow more. Here is a quick rewrite that although still choppy in places flows better to me. As with all suggestions, feel free to disregard! Remember though that the best poems emerge from repeated editings.

That really did set the scene.
I then placed it on my true love’s hand,
yes, it was a noble gesture.
