my favorite gemstones are blue

My favorite stones are blue
turquoise, opal, and blue topaz
I am drawn to them first
in every instance

I always wondered why
thinking they symbolize the sky
water or heaven
I know my go-to-rings and necklaces are blue

at a psychic fair one of the mediums tapped my ring
it is my absolute favorite – a diamond shaped blue topaz
set high above a band of light blue opals

This is the exact perfect ring for you, she told me
it will bring you what you seek,
blue connects you to your higher power

I have not quite figured it out
but I continue to lean toward stones that are blue
except lapis lazuli– for some reason that one repulses me.

My favorite color is blue... all shades. I'm not a fan of lapis either. I was born in November, so I'm stuck with topaz...golds and yellows, and I'll add orange... are my least favorite colors. I appreciate your plethora of poetry and paintings, Karen.

thank you Lin - I wear a blue topaz all the time it tops a band of lovely rainbow colored opals.
