My Jade Necklace

Blended jade
Surrounded by crimson thread
That holds it tight
Opaque made
As I watch it glisten in the light

It was a gift
From one sister to another
To open the first happy chapter
To close a rift
As the edges of hatred blur

Given to stop the arguments
To mend the broken sisterhood
To use it’s healing
Not a nuisance
But a gift, a needle of hope doing what it does best
Saving.
