One word becomes one idea, becomes one sentence, becomes one
poem, becomes one story. It must start from just “one word”. Today my one word
is “Diamonds”.
DIAMONDS
People are like diamonds; eventually
all cut to perfection. Some shine brilliantly, others glow softly. We come in
various shapes, sizes and colors - all worth our weight in precious gems and
gold. We are so individually intricate and unique in every way. Some of us are
nearly perfect, some mediocre, while others still a work in progress. It is
true we may be measured by our beauty, yet we are each adored greatly as one of
the many jewels in the world’s multifaceted population. Once we take our
rightful place in society, we then strive to become that perfectly-graded
Diamond.
