Amethyst
********************
A diamond is a girls best friend
at least that's what they say,
I'd like an amethyst please
A big purple emerald cut, okay?
I had one once as a graduation gift
But now it's nowhere to be seen, ever!
I'd do anything for that ring back
I'm afraid it's lost, to be seen again-never!

A favorite gemstone you ask of me?
But there are just so many you see!
Of every color the the spectrum seen by eye
They're radiance and clarity making me sigh
But if I have to choose just one
I find lazulite quite fun.

Diamonds
*****************
I already have diamonds, you see
given to me by my love, long ago
when we made our vows at the altar
it was heartfelt, not a show.
I have a Marquis shaped stone
I think it's the most majestic thing I own
But I'd give it up in a heartbeat
If it meant I'd have to live without him-alone
