It Will Shine Like A Diamond Before Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

It Will Shine Like A Diamond Before

Rating: 5.0


It will shine like a diamond before
If we can find the rhythm of the life
We can fly once again
Cutting through the lightning
I stare wide-eyed
Even at mere clouds
Let's paint ourselves in our dreams
The time goes on
We are not alone
Heading for the promised land

(dedicated to a great poet, Simon J. Ortiz)
