Amethyst protects my heart,
Emerald defends my imagination,
giving jade life to its clutching hands.
Ruby, the color of warriors dyed in their enemies vitality,
stands at the door of my eyes,
taking in all beautiful allies,
and bruising aside all malicious schemes
to usurp my place of fantastic mystery
where diamond butterflies stare at black pearl roses
with pure silver petals.
By jewels harder than steel,
made by my sedimentary refinery of igneous mastery,
my sapphire glazed eyes shut tightly
to dream of a world colored by tanzanite.
