Poetry Project By Heaven Williams
SimileFlint • An emerald is as green as grass,A ruby red as blood;A sapphire shines as blue as heaven;A flint lies in the mud. • A diamond is a brillant stone,To catch the world's desire;An opal holds a fiery spark;But a flint holds fire. • By Christina Rossetti
Joy Just when you thought that winter would be here forever, that it could never end, you saw: Amidst the frozen white, a tiny tip of green, first blade of grass, the messenger of spring.
