During Sunday School about a month ago I was on a wild rampage to find every scripture I could that mentioned jewels, crown, mansions, rubies. Sparkles and treasures. You name it. I wanted the verse. For a second I can apologize to Sister Jackie Owens for not being 100% focused on the lesson, but I really like what came out of that time. A combination of scripture, words and rhythms from Garrett Sherwood's poetry, and a sincere excitement at what lies ahead in the heavens inspired this work.
For your own study on eternal things that glitter try out some of the verses that inspired this poem

This is really neat! Isn't it cool how the scriptures themselves can inspire us to write, to create, to achieve? This poem is certainly a creative achievement. It's wonderful.
