Karst Material

With light might they sparkle

Karst Experiments which labors and
Chores
Might there mindfulness to produce
For who adores
Folk of value to stem and stern
Together in the name of science which
Lessons learned.

They wanted to create
A stone
A beautiful stone
One to make
Competiters envy.
Envy them into a submissive
Shame.
Might there works then be
Centered around the needs
of people.
Crush the Ego's of egotistical
Men
To stimulate a means of ways to
approach.

Using dissolved carbon they
Wished to create a colorful stone.
They thought using an abundance of
Layered colors from natural materials
The could create something.
The used a still like the one's moonshiners
Used. They disstillated colorful flowers, berries,
Mixed with dissolved clear quarts and carbon.
A super gelitan would allow the colored layers
To form the structure, should the
Blackberries come out black, should the pine berries
Come out white, the blueberries blue, the tulips red
Or purple, or pink, or yellow. The green stems and peels
Needed to be green, all shades of green.
They would layer these thick layers of gelatinous stones
So they could fuse and dehydrate into a solid stoned material then cut and polished to create gems for an inspired world. If this success was made the next experiments would be gold, platinum or silver.
This they prayed and prayed and prayed!
