Diamonds in the Rough

Spark of young ivory light,

Trailing loosely around the Mother Diamond.

Scattered far and wide

or,

Near and close.

Shrouded by the infinite velvet ebony of space, as time wraps its protective immunity around you, you are given immortality through your dance amongst the cosmos.

By cosmic abstract of nature; beauty and ele ee you may be

stars — silvery ancient stars —

you are the DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH.

—Kelly Leanne Mason
