opal_ring
kookaburra i want an opal ring
and it feels like ive wanted one forever.
but that isnt true.
at first i wanted the ring that ms. avandano had.
a dark stone
a dark translucent blue green shine
all its own.
and a silver band with black in the creases.
and suddenly that was all that i wanted.
because that ring looked ancient, and perhaps magical.
and if i wore it the butterflies would alight on my head, and the i would seem to have the beauty of the earth in my eyes.
but she wouldnt give it up.

and these rings of my dreams have nothing in common.
i want a ring with a jet black band.
with a white stone with flecks of color, and the stone wont let you see into its depths.
just as i want the world to see me.
just look at the pretty colors, and forget about seeing the inside.
