The Emerald Gem

A drop of velvet forest caught in stone,
A secret green that ancient woods have known.
Deep in the quiet earth it guards its light,
A frozen glimpse of spring in endless night.

Within its heart, a fracture softly glows,
Where hidden silk and mossy gardens grow.
It breathes of morning dew and shadow deep,
The sacred vows that silent mountains keep.

The stone of hope, of rebirth and of grace,
Time cannot dim the magic of its face.
A timeless spark of nature’s royal art,
Held fast within the emerald’s green heart.
