咏海洋玉髓《相濡以沫》
胡庆魁
青梅竹马来携手，地老天荒惜投缘。
岁月如流指间过，相濡以沫又经年。
咏南海螺化玉
胡庆魁
四亿年前寒武纪，浑沌初开藏淤泥。
螺蚌有心观盛世，楚馆藏珍语不虚！
注：楚馆藏南海螺化玉，形成于四亿多年前的寒武纪、泥盆纪，螺成为化石的机率——十万分之一！哇塞！
咏海南黄花梨 《残荷》
胡庆魁
天生我材有画境，一暏娇容诗意生。
亭亭玉立池塘冷，留取残荷听雨声。
咏屯昌水晶
胡庆魁
疑似水晶宫，楚馆迎珍宝。
梨花枝头雪，霜露润兰草。
云涛涌冷冰，寒光秋月娇。
心静无俗物，伴君百年好。
咏海南黄花梨《有凤来仪》
胡庆魁
凤凰展翅飞楚馆，翩然起舞送吉祥。
楚馆便是梧桐树，亿年藏品话沧桑。
咏自然遗赠《智慧门》
胡庆魁
大约1993年秋天，我从湖北荆州南下，上岛不久，省兰花协会组织兰友五指山采兰，在深山一猎户家求得宝贝。除了山色云气苔痕，此作无一丝人工刀斫斧劈痕迹，浑然天成，质地如镶玉嵌珠，形似一门，故名《智慧门》。
一刀未斫自然形，山色云气缀苔痕。
门内门外风光异，大千世界见天真！
咏楚馆藏品 南渡江树化石（二首）
胡庆魁
一
设若化石能说话，开口笃定“苦咸辣”。
亿年磨砺铸魂魄，南渡江畔世人夸！
二
除此沧桑无沧桑，一脉延续亿年传。
沉香花梨迹可寻，弦歌不辍韵悠长。
注：亿年磨砺句。据地质学家研究，南渡江树化石年愈亿年。历经地震、火山爆发，一万棵树有幸成为化石的只有一棵！万分之一！
沉香花梨句。楚馆收藏百余件树化石，专家以为，其中应该有不少海南土著沉香和花梨。
咏海南黄花梨雕《东坡先生在海南》
胡庆魁
羨尔诗才又词才，大江东去歌不衰。
仕途坎坷从容对，兹游奇绝唱琼台。
注：兹游奇绝句。苏东坡诗《六月二十日夜渡海》有句：“兹游奇绝冠平生”。
咏树化石《起来！》
胡庆魁
不当奴隶做主人，一声“起来”众生醒。
血肉筑成新长城，冒着炮火向前进！
诉衷情 .咏盆景《三十而立》
胡庆魁
一景成就过卅春，新叶伴虬根。山人举盏将饮，琴语唤归人。
夏蝉鸣，鸟儿和，水塘深。些微心亊，聊寄诗词，抚昔思今。
