Outstanding Gem

The cloud murmurs as the sun gaze intensely on the surface of the sea; The sky throws up a beautiful golden piece; which falls into the sea of seas, To compete and synchronize with other stones at the bottom,she must be perfect; Polished and rinsed repeatedly by sea water, She turns to a brilliant gem, brilliant stone appreciated by all,detested by few. Her words,character and poetic prowess are unique, which makes her meticulous and friendly with no huge physique, Pretty,passionate,sincere and warm this I must say, A lady of indomitable will , blesseth is your day, A stallion out of many millions of land beasts, fighting for freedom and world peace with her fists, Her compassion,good intent and skills I love to see, which have helped many out of doldrums and set them free. What else does such a being deserved? Blessings!,Accolades ,or Gifts! Hmm! I say 'all' ; She is : D-Dynamic E-Excellent B-Beautiful O-Outstanding R-Respectful A-Awesome H-Humble *This poem is a mixture of Personification,Rhyme ,free-verse and Acrostic,and it is specially dedicated to Debbie Guzzi* WRITTEN BY OLUSEGUN AROWOLO
