the jeweled harlot of all gemstones
a polished ruby can be fully decadent
flashing fire and the warmth of desire
prized for her lasting brilliant beauty

Nice job. I think you have captured the essence of the ruby well, though for red gems I prefer the garnet or spinel.

I have a particular fondness for rubies. I love this poetic description of them. Thank you for sharing.
