- Glimmering Stones In Moonlight -

    - Nature's treasures - 
      are worth more than money and gold in your pocket - 
                                                                quote by poet

    A light breeze, soft as a little cat's paw
    In the moonlight on the beach, quiet and calm
    a bluish light with hints of silver on the horizon
    The stars above, I’m lost in the beauty
    Waves touch the feet, erase the footprints

    A secluded gem, a sight to explore
    Of the thousands, wonderful treasures
    A secret paradise, so unique and peaceful
    Safely hidden between grain of sand
    Quartz stones that glitter in the moonlight

    Love to turn them over and over in my hands
    Provides a soothing and softening effect upon touch

Duke Beaufort Date: 4/19/2025 12:19:00 PM Anne-Lise, you have a direct and wonderful way to make it easy for me to follow your line of thinking. It's a pleasure to read really! BTW, you can take quartz rocks in the dark and scratch them together to make an internal spark. Have you tried that? Something to do with the crystal structure and electrons moving inside. You probably knew that already. Take care.
