Rainbow Hues

I’m ruby red for passion Blue sapphire like the sky Turquoise like the ocean These gems I have inside Bluish green in daytime Purplish red at night Alexandrite symphony Reveals my inner light An amethyst so peaceful It brings me inner calm Aquamarine tranquility My soul sings along Bloodstone for courage Citrine golden hues Diamond strength for purity So many gems to choose I was born from stardust Gems of rainbow hues I suspect that probably you my friend, were too. For Mystic Rose’s, “Spiritual Gem inside me Poetry Contest July 3rd 2025
