Opal

The opals fire; it burns so bright; a gem to light our way. Baked in Earth’s oven, this spectre bright; will never burn your skin; it’s simply light-play.

Opals are so lovely. I had never seen the truly beautiful variety of opals until I visited Australia. I really loved your entry M.L. Best of luck in the contest! : )

Thank you...Opal is actually my birthstone; have you ever seen a black opal? It's every bit as beautiful.
