[Poetry] Garnet’s Flame

Deep within the earth’s embrace,
A fiery heart finds quiet space.
January’s stone, a crimson star,
Born of time, from lands afar.

Like embers caught in frozen veins,
Its light defies the winter’s chains.
A guardian gem, both bold and wise,
A spark of warmth ‘neath icy skies.

Legends tell of travelers’ plight,
Who found their path by garnet’s light.
A guiding flame through darkened seas,
A jewel of strength in mysteries.

Its hues of red, a lover’s vow,
A timeless gift, eternal now.
From fiery almandine to verdant green,
Its facets hold what’s seldom seen.

Oh, garnet, gem of ancient lore,
You carry whispers, hearts adore.
A talisman of boundless grace,
A jewel that time cannot erase.
