I Dreamt of You In Diamonds

I dreamt of you in Diamonds The essence of refracted lament Advantageous to the brought Juxtaposed with rainbowed purpose Two fold in ambition, yet distinct With its discourse. I dreamt of you in Numbers The essence of logical reign In admonition and retribution The pearly facets of disdain Perplexing your inherent shadows With warmth and simple subtlety. I dreamt of you in Water The essence of sweet dispersion Cast to the shadows In a Lifeless quietude; Its relevance never given Amidst boasted crests Of indifference to change, Your attitude.

Dear Michele, I always love to seek out poets that I have not read and today I fell upon your poems and have been delighted by your words. In this particular poem I very much loved how you explore the complexity of human relationships and perceptions, suggesting that our understanding of others is often fragmented, abstract, and shaped by our own emotions and experiences. A wonderful philosophical read. - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
