Ruby Shopping Trip
Ruby Shopping Trip
I spent my day shopping for rubies
Among the carnelian dewdrops;
Gazing into garnet and golden skies -
Inhaling coral rose scent through raindrops.
I spent my twilight in an andesine sunset;
Fire opals lighting up in constellations;
Twinkling spinels mined from crimson dwarfs;
Star rubies flash smiles in jubilation.
I spent my midnight dreaming of cinnabar -
Visions of chests filled with jewels;
Spellbound - enchanted -wealth unimagined -
Only to find it on nature’s footstool.
