SEA GLASS IN A JAR

 

I placed you each so carefully~

In my sea glass jar~

Vibrant gems you make~

Just the way you are.

 

Sea glass in a jar~

How pretty you can be~

Kelly greens, browns, ~

 And iridescent clears~

You are my nuzzled, attractive ~

Collective dears for me.

 

Colt bolt blue, Jade, amber and amberina~

Your colors do elude~

The mundane once things you made~

Now a treasure you are renewed!

 

As a beachcomber I searched you out~

With short hunting steps~

My hands grasping at~

Your sand soaked nestled nest.

 

The pursuit of you was~

A thrilling exploration~

As to the shore I was blessed. ~

You found your destination~

 On this beach as best!

 

Upon my quest~

I found you dry~

 Amongst the seaweed. ~

I found you wet~

With sea salt water~

 Foamy lathering free!

 

I sought you out for miles on the beach~

I bent where you were spied~

Your brilliance snuggled~

Shining to my naked squinting eye.

 

I placed you with others in my plastic bag. ~

Your colors mingled in concert. ~

While dropping you from my cold damp hand~

You blended combining ~

Far from anything dingy,or bland.

 

Home I took you all~

To wash you and dry you~

 With a towel. ~

Oh how rich you look laying there~

 Right now!

 

I placed you each so carefully~

In my sea glass jar~

Vibrant gems you make~

Just the way you are.
