Beneath the Glitter

Scent of amethyst
     Ruby's allure
   Sparkle of sapphire
     Opal's flash in the glade

   Necklace of pearls
     Earrings, pure gold
   Seductresses wear them

   Jaded?
     ~ or bold

I love jewels, gw, and stand in awe of their exquisite beauty. I found a peridot in the bottom of Deb's jewelry purse after I had sold all of her jewelry. I felt like it was left behind for a purpose, so I wear it in my left ear. I often get asked about it, giving me opportunity to tell someone about my wife.
