Arresting red & vivid blues
The gem with Caribbean-blue eyes
Fragile pinks scattered in hues
In the twilight evening skies
Colors burst with dazzling range
Shades of blue, green, pink, and gold
Time over time they never change
Like butterfly wings they unfold
Stones verily leaping over each other
in flashes of rich colors competing
There’s no words I can utter
My heart is heavily beating
Paraiba Tourmaline you’re queen
In the realm of all the gems
Your emerald and yellowish-green
There’s no comparison now or then
