Hi Sara, This is a sparkling exhibit from your golden pen. The contrasting segments compliment each other so well. Due in no small part to your immaculate choice of words. I appreciate your generous review of Ample Rose Bush which was another top ten premiere winner in a Brian Strand contest Kind regards Howard

Diamond before it is polished is drab and dull, just a rock. But when perfected, it becomes sparkling and glistening! A beautiful diamante !

Thank you, Valsa. I imagine it takes a good eye to see the potential within that rock. Thanks for the nice review. Sara

Oh woww, how breathtaking! I'm loving the wordplay, so pristinely carved in the form Diamante.. You're so creative.. The alliteration gives this a perfect mellifluous tone! Sending love- Hiya :)

Well, I am not speaking about The Corner Stone Rock which the diamond cannot hold up to. Just the ordinary rock it comes from before being shaped, polished, and turned into a thing of beauty. Thank you for dropping by. Sara
