if stones could bloom
those small, mineral seeds
would open amethyst and sapphire
flowers that never fade–
brilliant but scentless

Oh Susan, this is a brilliant play on words. Beautiful imagery. You’ve outdone yourself, my sweet friend.
Aw, thanks–and thanking you for the inspiration!
you made the stones bloom … amazing !!!
Thank you! Celestine gave me the inspiration
Brilliant but scentless. A lot of ways to think about that. Something’s missing? Or something only appears to be missing?
Hmmm. Could be both.
I’ve enjoyed reading Celestine’s small stone and then yours. lovely.
Thank you, Alice!
Once again, you’ve written something beautiful.
Thank you, Dean.
glowing grass!
Sapphire, so beautiful, nature practising crystalline synchronicity.
Sapphire is my favorite gem.
