The Gift
There is too much energy
in my bones tonight for sleeping.
Gazing out my window at the shadows
where a full moon in Pisces ought to shine.
Mind races like the currents of
the Grand River that I sat by.
Crystals that were gifted there
call a Siren song to my heart.
The tides are churning, seafoam oozing
like pus from the pores of perceivable time.
Minerals collect at my feet.
How long have I been standing here
with this wistful stare?

Author's Note
Written in response to a collection of mystical stones found by the Grand River in Lansing MI, as if by fate, the day of the full moon in Pisces last month. Photo is as I found them, staked to the ground with the note.

Ah you speak from the heart of knowing Melia. I do not believe in coincidences such as this; to have found these stones placed just so for my discovery during an afternoon hike, I thanked the giver in spirit. They are a great balance to the crystal collection I already have 💎 Glad to have inspired you.

Synchronicity at its best, when one is in touch with inuition. Thank you kindly Ahavati 💖

Like you I don't believe in coincidences, so this is a true gift indeed!
As a child I collected stones and I still do... have a small collection of heart shaped ones.
As for the poem... I'm in awe with the phrasing and imagery and I love the picture! It's unbelievable that someone put it there so neatly and I'm ever so curious what the letter says... can't believe no one asked! I'm an aries you know... I'm curious :-)
Thank you for sharing, Gem ❤

I have a collection of natural rocks from the lakes of MI throughout the years, as well as other places I’ve traveled!
These gems however have special meanings, the note lists what they are...
Pyrite: intelligence, luck, prosperity, protection
Pink agate: friendship, love, comfort, happiness
Opalite: communication, persistence, healing
Rose quartz: love, beauty, inner peace
Obsidian: removes nagativity, grounding, protection, healing

It truly warmed my heart too, to know that someone would share such tokens of blessing, and allow the Universe to call for someone in need. Quite inspirational to say the least! The good karma of giving and receiving 💫
