Diamond Sparkling, Shining Bright Poem by Dela Bobobee

Diamond sparkling, shinning bright
like a star in the dark night sky
now I know the delight you flare
in the eyes of all women’s hearts
go drill holes in men’s pockets

deep down in the recess of earth
men dig with such feverish dint
they scratch, fight and die for you
when braces fall and bury them
die smiling hold you in their hands

deep in strong rocks you are found
broken and sieved form particles
with another diamond you are cut
pruned from symmetry your shape
that’s why you cost such a fortune.
