Jewel


Jewel, is my favorite nickname.
I like how its spelled,
its what I wish I could claim.

Its pretty, its simple, its a fit,
oh the way it flows,
wished more people called me it.

I like how in cursive its just
swoop, swoop, done!
No, not a chore, its just fun.

They see a word, or just a name.
 Its curvy! Its anxious! Its soft!
I see flame.

None of that struggle for it to be read.
I can finally relax,
and just let it be said.

Yes, Jewel, like a precious stone.
not funky, but creative,
and the fact that its known.

When its said,
power and confidence builds inside.
I feel I could do
anything, anywhere, anytime, worldwide.

To be called a jewel, was an honor in history
now, rarely said
and remains a mystery.
