Earth's Stone by Sue Cartwright
Ancients that embody memory and deep connections to the Earth
Smoothe as marble, silken, cool;
Sinuous veins curved in lines, metallic grooves;
Marks in time, as tectonic plates move;
Traces locked in strata, history running through.
Hard as granite, wild weather worn;
Quartz crystal flecks, glisten in the Sun;
Exposed from the depths of Earth, to tower and soar;
In land sculpted mountains, rocky hills and tors.
Cold as slate, thin, foliated, sharp edged;
Made from mudstone, volcanic ash and clay;
Flat, straight, fine grained, styled in layers;
Raindrops drip down from grey roof tiles.
Strong as rock, mega metamorphic stock;
Molton minerals, plasma, dissolving gas, hot;
Volcanic rivers running red, fluid lava, life lost;
Cooling, hardening, eroding into nutrient-rich soil.
Stone carved, engraved, polished, ground;
Stone touched, felt, held, admired;
Stone igeneous, sedimentary, metamorphic, hard;
Crystal energy, spiritual synergy, healing power,
