Love Shines Like a Precious Diamond A precious stone that will endure one thousand years and still be pure. A fine gold band holds on tight to that diamond with all its might. Diamond ring you shine so bright as I watch you bathing in the light. Your sparkling brilliance caught my eye like twinkling stars suspended in the evening sky. And this ring I hold in my hand will someday caress my sweethearts hand. Surely our love will endure one thousand years and still be pure. Brilliantly shining with beauty and might just like a precious diamond bathing in Love's bright light. Jameslee@July16,2000 [This message has been edited by jmlee12345 (edited 07-17-2000).] |

I loved this piece.... A fine gold band holds on tight to that diamond with all its might This was a unique and lovely way of describing a diamond ring!! Nice!!

Jimmy is excellent and it's perhaps the most beautiful piece I've seen you done. I'm also glad to see you exploring into the world of stanzas and rhythmic motions. Great job and I'm looking forward to more! Nathan |

Martie poetry is indeed very beautiful but it is hard to ignore the beauty of a woman and the beauty of a diamond...thank you for your nice comments...James |

a lovely poem beautifully expressed. why must we pray screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith |
