Aquamarine

Subtle hue abounds by amassed sight,

She shines gently in morning light,

An understated and yet timeless fancy,

She’s the tinted shade of the tropical sea,

She’s joy found in a summer pool lit with sun’s glisten,

She’s the light-hearted river brook you can swim in,

She’s the youthful enthusiast,

of a blue pond with radiant mist,

She is the color of quenched thirst,

The color of droplets when clouds burst,

She’s the element of desired need,

The oasis in a desert heat,

The optimistic calm of a delightful beach day,

Her elegance dances on the warm rays,

Sparkling the surface of her cool touch,

Reflecting her opulence as much,

A wonderous incandescent gem,

And a treasure to fine jewels amongst them,

She’s the contradictory notion,

of light whimsy and power of oceans,

A sprite of shimmer that catches the eye,

With the slightest tint of blue dye,

She trickles across fingertips,

The taste of replenishment on the lips,

An intermingled element of everyday life,

The healing of a land in droughted strife,

She’s the welcome blessing,

Of a smooth soft caressing,

Beaded drops of her linger,

On skin weathered to receive her,

Washing away the grind of responsibility,

She rejuvenates joyfully,

She’s everything that’s elemental to sustain

Aquamarine is the beauty found by her name.
