Opal I Understand Poem by Ananta Madhavan

Opal I Understand



Opal I understand from pride,
My birthstone with a range so wide;
Shingled and smoked in wisps of blue,
Orange as if it bled inside,
Purple inbred with pallid white.
All is included, all may be true.

Mine is this bold eliding, such
Colours, as in the warming light,
Signal responses to the touch.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
There is a belief that birthstones and native star; I do not believe
in this, but know from experience that we have many different moods and
impressions as we journey through life. I am a 'pluralist' by that
criterion.
