The pearl diver returned to his house near the sea
With his beautiful wife from the underwater world
They entered his village of pearl traders
Where they lived among the people
In the pearl traders village,
the diver continued his usual style of living
He searched for the pearls in the sea
And sold them to the merchants.
And his wife helped him in his work
And made his life cheerful and glad.
But in the pearl traders village, there were those who envied them
And hated them for their happiness and love
So they tried to separate them
And planted doubt and fear in their hearts
They said to the pearl diver: Aren't you afraid of losing your wife?
For she is from another world that does not belong to you
Perhaps she betrays you with someone else
Or escapes from you to her deep sea
And they said to his wife: Don't you miss your sea?
For it is your home and your origin and your roots
Perhaps your husband exploits you and enslaves you
Or sells you with the pearls to some rich man
But the pearl diver and his wife did not believe their words
For they loved each other sincerely and faithfully
And they did not allow anyone to shake their trust
Or enter between them discord or strife
So they decided to leave the pearl traders village
And return to their house under the sea surface
Where they could live in peace and freedom
And share with each other joy and sorrow.
They left the pearl traders village on a quiet night
And the parents of the diver bid farewell to them, giving their blessings
and wishing happiness and safety in their lives.
Because they did not care about envious and wicked talks.
The inhabitants of the sea welcomed the pearl diver and his wife
The fishes , dolphins and octopuses showed them care and respect
And escorted them to their palace
Where their faithful creature guardian of their underwater home
Was waiting for them.

I wrote this as continuation of my last poem https://steemit.com/hive-107855/@artsofmarynowski/love-of-a-pearl-diver It was interesting for @weisser-rabe what happened next.
I see: there will always be a place where one is welcome! One has just to find it...
