Notes About The Poem

This is specifically dedicated to my sister-in-law, and then generally too all women who serve the Lord by reflecting our Savior Jesus Christ's image to others, which starts in and with our families. Praise the Lord for the mirrored image of the Proverb's 31 woman, who primps (in modesty) for the Lord. She (my sister-in-law) never fell for Women's Lib's glibness, but holds to the Biblical norm to avoid transgenderism's storm when "He [Jesus] answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them male and female"

Lady Diamond (A Proverbs 31 Woman)

Lady Diamond rose as each new day dawns
In her gentle hands her household yawns
A model once in the camera’s light
Now clothed in the light of Jesus Christ

She served her husband, taught each child
With patient, grace and spirit mild
Two sons, two daughters, hearts held near
Her labor deep, her teaching clear

By day she gave till strength was thin
By night the moon would tuck her in
The birds sang praise when morning came
And heaven blessed her quiet name

God be praised for women who stand
With Proverbs’ 31 wisdom in their hand
All women, God’s beautiful bouquet
With Lady Diamond showing the way
