Gemstone Acrostics I Daughter of Clarity, I want to know Are you invincible? Maybe you are unbreakable, as you seem. Or is there some power Near here that can Destroy your heart? II Son of Purity, All shades of blue are compared to your Perfect tears. Perhaps some worship How you glow In all levels of light. Reflect upon your Elemental strength. III Radiance's daughter, Unleash your heat By opening up and Yelling out your fire. IV Element Martyr's son, Everywhere, well- Rendered shades of you Are placed in genteel hands. Little do they know how easy it is to Deceive. V Angel Crystal's daughter, My heart goes out to you. Even the deepest royal blood is Turned away by those who don't know How truly valuable You are, Still, you endure, for you know the Truth. VI To you, Oldest son of Versatility, Perfect color comes in many forms. Always, you form your beauty with Zeal. VII Of all the daughters of Dreams, Purity in beauty is easiest for you. Always remember to contain that Luster that lies within you. |

I ... Needed to read this. Touchstone verse. Open these pages. My eyes are overwhelmed. You understand yr grace. Left to find your shadows, I trace my hands across the dirt. Bearing rainy flowers. Roar of waterfall nearby. All that's left to say or do. Realize the smooth of gems. You place clouds in this sky of fire. Your words are a conception. On and on they go. Until their source is found. Go now, my poet. Onward. To the deep of self and sound. (acrostic return) She said burn ... together. -TON [This message has been edited by bsquirrel (05-18-2002 07:18 PM).] |

An ode to gemstones.... Very interesting freeverse, but I find it hard to tell which verse stands for what gemstone. It is a challenge to try to figure it out. Very refreshing! Caminus Ignis Ventosus Stillicidium |
