our hidden talents to be

Once I l gazed into the mirror
looked at my eyes,
there were two gems.
One was my mom and one were you.

Now I'm sitting beside my mom,
half blind.

Premium Member Gems of Time

     The mansion 
     now sits empty;
     in its halls 
     and rooms 
     memories of her 
     echoing 
     like dust-encrusted 
     gems of time.

Tears are not water drops
But dipping crystal balls
Packed with profound feelings~
Let not banes from our mouth
Or furies of our acts
Sting a soft simple soul.

Premium Member Brain

A brain
is an internal treasure chest
filled with abstract gems and gold
that can be replicated as one
gives their gold to fill
another's treasure box for
the better of their future

 Turning beautiful words into gems
 From deep within these words did stem
 Poets proudly pen precious poems.

Dazzling diamonds
  Precious pearls
Elegant emeralds
  Sapphire swirls

Sparkling silver
  Glitter of gold
Allure of amethyst
  
He gave her multi beryl
  Their wedding's on hold...

Premium Member Poetry Gems

Putting all thoughts
Out there online
Every little notion
Treasures of mine
Real or not
Yearning to shine

Gathering momentum
Except in my head
Must ink words down
Submit before dead.

Premium Member Teaspoon of Gems

...in the beginning and nearing the end 
we become as baby sparrows
with teaspoon heartbeats
veined wrinkled heads
the starry harps of heaven
guiding every gilded breath...

Color me azurite; Malachite isles upon Lapis blue seas. I sail the waves, moved by Gaia’s tranquil, reverberating song. On the horizon, dolphin arcs play; brother sun laughs.

Premium Member When Jim Crow Goes Hunting For Gems

Teachers are supposed to be polishing gems.
But instead, are cracking the gloaming of innocents. 
Judging children by their race, when all they want to do is play.
Jim Crow is cawing for souls once again.

Precious Gems.

Two special guys
Diamonds both
each irregular in a way
One a diamond
rough 'round the edges.
Another a diamond
chipped here and there
but even so
my sons-in law
are precious Gems 
despite the flaw.

Premium Member Pearls

Self-sacrifice is the oyster’s lot; this ocean martyr spends its life, dedicated to its art. Its sculptures of abalone and pearl; grace softly, human skin, with a luster bright.

Premium Member A Rich Day

The day shines like gems
Glistening in the sunlight
I feel rich today

I find a seashell
I listen for the ocean
The sea comes to me

Found the mother load
The gold mine was in her eyes
I'm rich forever...

Premium Member Sandstone Rough Shale Cool

Sandstone, rough, gritty.
Shale.  Cool, layered, shelved.
Beryl. Ugly but if you can keep it for a million years
You will have emerald and aquamarine from beryl.
I am staring at my piece now, watching it not change.

Premium Member Crystals

Quartzes hold a million stories; each occlusion, a chapter of a cosmic, best-seller. Faceted beauties born of the elements are charmers; the wearer, learns many secrets; illuminating!
