Have you ever been stoned?C/C pls and thanks?
GEMSTONED(answer to Lapiz D gem list poem challenge)
The peridot's left off this list
But by the August sun it's kissed
With just a hint of summers gold
It's green with envy I've been told
The garnet's darker and more dense
Than ruby with her sheer expense
While one might put you in the red
They both possess that color bled
Could onyx put you back in black?
It will if monie's what you lack
Still you can step out with cool bling
If you have onyx in your ring
And what of opal with it's veins
Like colored horses' rhinestone reins
So many different tints and hues
I don't think I could ever choose
Safe jasper can be worn to guard
A shamen from a foes petard
Or ward off evil hurtful vibes
To keep a wearers drive alive
The ocean pearl's a grain of sand
That's calcified with no set plan
Inside a mollusk one will form
But perfect pearls are not the norm
Topaz starts orange but mostly yellow
And it won't bust a fem or fellow
When one is blue it has been changed
By radiation rearranged
Lapis lazuli--intense blue stone
It has a name that fits its tone
First found in the Egyptian mines
And prized by fans since ancient times
I like the emerald gem the best
And time has put it to the test
It's classy on the neck or finger
But on the ears that glint will linger
And finally diamond, queen of gems
Yet worn by hers and worn by hims
Once judged the hardest thing on earth
A bride and bridegroom know its worth
Precious gems and jewels and stones
If you want some, you're not alone
I know some rocks aren't in this write
Perhaps I'll do part two tonight

Peridot is my favorite stone. You had me at the first line. But then you made it even better. You clinched that challenge wonderfully!
