Image result for image of aquamarine stone

Soothing as the waters – quiet and serene - I am mermaids’ treasure from the sea. Foamy green or light sky blue, I am aquamarine. Touch me to your skin and within, find wisdom, youth and fidelity. Let me embrace you with beauty’s clarity. For Line Gauthier's 'TRIBUTE TO A PRECIOUS OR SEMI-PRECIOUS GEM' Poetry Contest

This is so mesmerising Andrea and aquamarine is my birthstone, so why do I not have any in my jewellery box - I have no idea?!? Your beautiful description has captured my heart and I feel a strong desire to treat myself very soon haha! Congrats on your stunning win and I love the line 'mermaid's treasure' with kindest thoughts Ann xx

Aha, so this comes from one of my favorite people and poets. This flows so beautifully and I love the way you describe the gem as a mermaids' treasure. I cannot promise an aquamarine (I just gave a collection of them to a child who nearly died), but I will definitely send you a blue gemstone in the color of the sea. Congratulations! Carolyn

A gem of a poem, Andrea. Not being glib, just truthful. I know so little about jewelry that I just listen to others more knowledgeable. Very good write. Love to you always. RW
