Blood Red Gem

I spent my day shopping for rubies searching for jewels, glittering red love of Venus, in strawberry stones fortune favours, that's how they said. diadem of diamonds, splashes amber fierce blaze of fire, polished in shine red rose pendant glowing in whims superstellar color, garnets crystalline. Here's the real ruby, in its royal scepter pale moonlight, russet autumn shades crowned on this ring, an euphoric cherry? No, it's just a fake, the tint masquerades. Her wedding dress of red silk brocade, poppies and buttercups sewn to the hem. A matching ruby to flicker a misaligned fate, a hardened heart buys, the blood red gem. 19th July 2020 Sponsor Julia Ward Contest Name First Line Prompt - 3 |
