[hometext] => The jade represents someone who is hiding their feelings and acting as a stone to hide from pain, and they distance themself from those who seek them. But no matter how hard they try, they can't hide how beautiful they really are. Eventually someone reaches and is able to give this person hope at the end of the poem.
[bodytext] => Jade,
whisperings of darkened hours tinted green, Carved out of solid pitch-black flint That lived within a blood-red shell, The hurt obscured from the miner’s eye within earth’s constant burning core. What hid this thing, what blackish lore Could make this lovely stone to bury Itself from itself, and the poor lost miner, Who searches and digs in hopes of exhuming That which is nearly too far to be reached. Yet this one sole jade-rock, may it be preached, That in its gray resolve to hold The underground court to which it keeps, Can’t hide the most true and apparent fact: The beauty of its downcast core will not be left unseen And so on summer’s day, a bright new keen Thing shall appear; lovely kindness, sharp of sight, To see a solemn veiled pebble with a radiant kind of pity And he, as miner, at once will know The Jade, the stone, the rock he has is more priceless than gold And its Hope begins to grow. . .

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
