Beauty and the Beholder

The red rose whispers of passion,

And the white rose breathes of love;

O, the red rose is a falcon,

And the white rose is a dove.

But I send you a cream-white rosebud

Witha flush on its petal tips;

For the love that is purest and sweetest

Has a kiss of desire on the lips.

~A White Rose by John Boyle O’Reilly

Happy Birthday all you dear Aquarians! Amethyst is your lovely birthstone.

I absolutely adore Amethysts and I use them so often in my jewelry. There is something about their liquid violet blue depth that is mesmerizing. Enjoy!
