Sparkles Like Diamonds

Shall I tell you a story of sweet victory? How even the blind one could suddenly see! There's little old me with a case of the blues. Then I dug out my red dress,the sadness to lose. Now I'm painting up poverty,making it shine. Having some glasses of dandlelion wine. There's a big shaft of light that I'm gazing through. If you care to come with me then you'll see it too. A gold-dusted staircase that winds to the sun. It sparkles like diamonds when our day is done. Sparkles like diamonds on a silver edged tray; the sun put to bed and the moon come to play! written February 4th,2013

An excellent version of the shaft of light. A bright and lifting couplet I must say. Good luck Deb on the contest my friend. It sounds like a win. Warm Smiles, Connie
