As coal surrenders itself
to a diamond
I ask for the surrender
of your heart to mine
May your dreams always dance to the rhythm of a lover's heartbeat...

oh, I love this. . . really. . .

it reminds me so much of Peter McWilliams. . . if you've never read him, you should. . . this is his style. . . short and profound. . .

great job. . .

The surrender of base to precious.
If I had a white flag, I'd wave it.

As you may have noticed, I prefer this type of poetry, myself.  I love reading an infinite moment in just a few words.

Duncan,
you are very sweet.  And yes, I have noticed. And have become quite fond of your style. You have a beautiful gift.

Poetic verse placed in the sadness of my heart
mask the sweet yearnings of my soul

A diamond is just a lump of coal that has been under a lot of pressure.
