What do you think about this poem...? Why is Flint more important than all the beautiful gem stones?
Flint
by Christina Rosetti
An emerald is as green as grass,
A ruby red as blood;
A sapphire shines as blue as heaven;
A flint lies in the mud.
A diamond is a brilliant stone,
To catch the world's desire;
An opal holds a fiery spark;
But a flint holds a fire.
