Hi CG
This such is a wonderful DiamantƩ read, capturing the imagery love brilliantly, very sublime, almost charmed in its presentation.
Very dreamlike and impressionistic, yet still connected to reality. Its like an oasis moment in the craziness of life.
Absolutely lovely.
Mitchell

Exactly!!! This is what I thought when I looked into this contest, I thought of my husband, a true diamond in the rough. This is wonderful, a great entry, blessings...

A well written poem. Is this the "diamond shaped" poem referred to in one of the contests? I enjoyed reading it and I think you have a wonderful control of words. Good luck.

You have followed the theme of this type of poetry very well. It is interesting in that you have turned it into a love poem. A unique and creative way of forming the diamond. Well done. I enjoyed the way you put this one together.

I enjoyed reading your diamante poem "Solid Love". You followed all the rules for this genre and you are very lucky to have found your diamond. (All that glitters is not gold) - no truer words.
All the best in the contest.

Diamonds in the rough can often be
mistaken for a chunk of junk....
Then very often 'we' can be diamonds in the rough
ourselves...as in the case of the 'gem-stone man.
Well done diamante,
:-) Carolyn

Oh, diamonds are a girls best friend. I've never actually had one but I still have hope one day I will. I really enjoyed reading your poem. Thank you for sharing and best wishes on the contest
