Conscious Gems

Conscious Beings She sensed the grass has instinctively grown Taller than the aged stone motionless and alone Deep green like the emerald set on her golden ring Like cognizant beings nourished by a life-giving spring. 10/19/2022: Aboard cruise ship: Rhapsody of the Seas Docked in Haifa, Israel

The green grass growing is being beautifully compared to the emerald set in a golden ring. The tall growing grass is projected against the motionless stone. Thus growth and stagnation are powerfully contrasted. Great Quatrain, Anselmo

Anselmo, Your writing is fairly flawless, and the content shows that you have a deep understanding of the topic at hand. How adorable is it that a poem that really should have been called a Gem?
