Crystal Egg

Wise man offered rare crystal stone carnelian egg in bright orange hue, known to rejuvenate one’s home its power was said to clear the view, and guard chi from negative moods. When hubby roared and slammed the door; I held the egg to cast out feuds, his grumbling turned into a purr. Chanting on it like myth’s refrain, most valued gem, polished to glow; till sweet mate grew batty again, prized egg, he dug under deep snow. © *chi--- energy force

Nette I went to your last email and it said something different than 7, so it confused me and I believed you wanted 9:15. Your last email to me said between 9 and 11. Anyway, it's ready now. Go see.

Nice witty write on this egg Nette. Not so long ago he could bury it in the snow. Few places still getting the odd snowfall which is unusual. Garden is in--- so hoping for sunny days ahead. love phyl
