Best Garnet Poems

Dazzling like a sparkling green diamond
Eyes lit up when I opened the velvet box!
My birthstone for Aquarius is garnet 
Almandine is most common form with a rich red colour
Not for me -I wanted something more unusual
The jeweler had to order it in especially for me
Of...

Intentionally deceived by those that augmented dubiously.
An Innocence killed by lies that seemed real.
Now, what a heart should feel is controlled by strength of will.
Entombed down deep inside a garnet red does hide.
Tossed away, you lost, I'm afraid....

This garnet chain you gave me
Is proof of your love
And in this, your face I see
Smiling from above

I keep this chain near my heart
Wear it every day
Me and your love never part
In my soul, you stay

This garnet chain you gave me
Shining in red hue
A bond...

Gadabout butterflies
glitter like red sunset.
Gem sparkles in the west.
Gracious nature provides
glamour hues in winter.
Glad robin sings, lustrous.
Goodbye, last robustness....

You're the beautiful month of brand new starts
clasping hands and wide open hearts.
When the festivities are done
we can breath a sigh as one.

You happen to be the month of my birth;
the time that I arrived on earth!
You're a time of renewal and seeking dreams
when nothing's...

Glowing like a hot fire
Any shade of red just won't do;
Renegade shadows 
Nearly misread as blood; 
Energizing the cold 
The flame of January....

O vibrant and rich January
Velvet sweet, warming  the icy vine;
Her crystalline - garnet evening, bright...
Red orioles, whose lilting chorus
The snowflakes, in tinsel greet: And moon
knowing a gown's ONE STONE designs
To adorn the night!...  her Capricorn
Jewel spills depicting vitality on flight,   ...

O! Garnet star, what hydra-like,
	Immortality
How humanity doth envy,
	Thou vitality

What sayest thou of Man?
	(Surely he would say) 
O - but lowly Mayfly,
	That flutter for a day

What thinkest thou of Time?
	(Surely he would think)
A torrent inexhaustible,	
	I forever drink	
	
Lo, but I know a thing,
	Surpassing thou by far:
Eternal life...

He was executed in London
for his catholic faith.
Priest murdered
“in the majesty of the law”

in a treacherous country.
Is this your tolerance,
making judgments
on human conscience.

“After ordination he wandered from place to place
to reduce souls which went astray
and were in error as to the knowledge
of the Catholic Church”.

Glimmers of rose petals
Glisten on the skyline,
Gold, glittered with deep red~
Gloaming gems, mirroring
Gossamer silk of stars,
Gliding across a love-
Glazed garden of yearning....

I pause to listen to the silence –
I am one with the million befores
and the afters and at great peace 
amid the soundless, immense harmonies.

I become the rhythm of the spheres
and part of that oneness orchestration,
both absorbed and apart in a light,
too orderly to be...

I dream of Gamecock victories
On courts and fields and track
I follow the recruiting trail
In hopes of all-time back;
I sit in stands, both cold and warm
To watch Garnet and Black
And even when we fail to win
It’s never for spirit they lack....

On a cold, winter day,
I was born,
A new creation in a troubled world.
My birthstone, the garnet,
the color of blood worn on my finger. 
I saw no light in the dark red stone.
I wondered, why not an emerald, 
       ...

The Kelty one-man tent flaps face Ritter
The night is me and the Sierran darkness
As no moon reflects upon the granite

Cold sun touches its light upon the high peaks
As mist lingers layered against the slopes 
I remain in my bag to await warmth

A bear walks past...
