Tongue Twister Time

Tongue Twister Time

There once was a Queen I  was told
had a passion for Quartz but not for gold
Her lust for the mineral 
To the point of being criminal
Left goldsmiths in awe of her quirky flaw
The King was appalled and told her to STOP!
We don’t need another countertop
So she gave up the quest
And decided to rest
And dropped the subject from her mind
Until Alabaster she came to find

QUIRKY QUEEN QUIT THE QUEST FOR QUARTZ

Really very good Ralph. The rhyming was spot on and the tongue twister was very cool and hard to say real fast. :) Good luck in the contest.
