Diamonds

"Diamonds"
I love the rain and the piano. We are the diamonds formed strong under pressure we cut glass like blades cut through Winter's ice the mirror shatters as we touch they can’t break us as hard as anyone might try; We are the diamonds shining bright and beautiful reflecting light as piano notes turn keys to wash clean the tears of past pain's refrain I love the piano and the rain. We are the diamonds camouflaged safe in the dark impenetrable amongst all covetous shadows with their hidden dark eyes watching enviously, longingly and with anticipation for a high fall from grace But that won’t happen. We are the diamonds, made of stronger stuff than shadows crying tears of past pain's refrain thin veiled ghosts wanting to be diamonds just the same We are the diamonds Shining in the rain (LadyLabyrinth/2020)

I have got diamonds on the sole of my shoes. Uncut and a traveller's best friend.

They sound like some expensive shoes. I notice you come up as "Spain" at present Kai. If you are living THE LIFE travelling the world, kudos to you, most people dream of that....you'll have to tell me about your experiences with the Running of the Bulls. So many places yet to see and experience. L x

Divinity, time and perseverance, churning and burning, the inner heat transforming, such a warming...the outside's storming but the inside is calm...reflection of you in me, me in you...outlasting eternity... beauty (the music inspired these words) Schmidt xxx
