Stars Like Diamonds

Stars like diamonds The stars are like diamonds, shining brightly in your eyes Illuminating my darkness as you cover me with your skies The moon in it's splendor is nothing when compared to you Your reflection of my love comes beaming right on through Excerpt taken from my poem called Universal love. John Derek Hamilton January 14,2020

My how I long for some of that Universal love you speak of dear poet. Nice words, your muse is not asleep, she just wants to bring back the good lines you wrote, so they can be re read and enjoyed. Thank you for sharing have a blessed day day John.

"as you cover me with your skies" Oh my!! Such a beautiful thought. Very romantic. As I caress your words around me, I am there in the moment. Such a wonderful feeling indeed. :) Brandy

Thanks Sandy, as I mentioned to others songs come easily but poetry doesn't, it seems like too much work but I know I just have to put my mind to it, my problem is I think I've said it all, at least I'm feeling uninspired, but hopefully...

Your poem evokes recollections of staring into a loved one's eyes neath a starlit sky. Beautifully penned, John. You have a romantic soul, my friend. Hugs, Carolyn

That's probably true Carolyn, I need to let her inspire me again, I've kind of gotten away from poetry as songs come more easily, but I'll give it a try. Glad you came by with your nice comment!

I think it is beautiful and something I wish I had written. Nice one my friend.

Wow thanks Chris, I guess I should try poetry more often, it's just songs come to me more easily, but I'll give it a try, glad you liked this one so much!

Yes sir, I do like it ~ a lot. Now take the plunge and write something new. You don't need to wait for that gypsy muse. Show her she's not needed.

John Hamilton

That's funny Lin, I hope I can come up with something, been a long time since writing poetry, I'll give it a go, thanks for the encouragement!
