Aquamarine Alchemy

As the men of the great sea carry me
Assuring them of safe travel on water
Courage and serenity are given free
Am restless anxiety adjuster

Feel so soft smooth as nestled in pocket
Look deeply into my pale blue colors
Ye men of wide sea who wear bluejacket
Those who my purpose are sure acceptors

How my healing powers strength your heart
Throat, spleen, immune system, mouth, ears, breating
Offering protection for journey chart
Constantly in your pocket safely abiding

Mental, emotional, physical
Aquamarine polished smooth possible alchemy

Wow, that's awesome, Sara. I love the way you describe the serenity offered by the sea and and healing powers a sea voyage can offer. I am not really very familiar ith the alchemy of the aquamarine stone, but it truly is a beautiful stone. So sorry you didn't post this in time for the contest because I see it as a winner and it's going to my faves. Love, Carolyn
