Somewhere shines a diamond
Within the cold, grey stone
Silently it slumbers
Set deep and yet unknown
Hidden there in secret
Concealed from mortal sight
Glist`ning in the shading
A dazzling shining light
Somewhere full enshrouded
A glinting speck of gold
Waits to be uncovered
So lovely to behold
Longing for the dawning
When sunlight strikes the land
Revealing all this beauty
Fixed in the burning sand
Somewhere in the twilight
A ray of hope shines through
Fading all the shadows
Surrounding me and you
I have searched a lifetime
These treasures yet to find
Are they bound in darkness
Or there within my mind
The title instantly drew me in and every word afterward had me hooked, there are so many beautiful things in this world that sometimes they are more beautiful because they have not been touched or found. This was a stellar read

I would like to translate this poem
This poem expresses such a beautiful wisdom; there are hidden gems in everyone of us in every situation and yes perhaps in almost every rock. I truly enjoyed reading this poem. It is so good. I wrote some time ago something, which I think expresses some similar meaning (Y.. the littel light) . If you have time to read and comment on that one, I would be grateful Excellent peom, Val
