Mornings of  rubies and sapphires are fine
  Afternoons  of Topaz and turquoise  divine
Evenings with Emeralds   shine bright
But nothing compares to a Black Diamond night...

Like a black diamond, 
I shine ever so brightly. 

Like a black diamond, 
Brilliantly cut,
With pristine clarity,
I am a rarity.

Like a black diamond, 
I shine ever so brightly....

A cursed black gem
Founded in excavation
Contains ancient jinx
Provoking the sudden death 
In miners that extracted gem

Black diamonds throughout the sky.
Little' boy why do you cry? 
One can stare all night into your eyes.
I would love nothing more than too kiss you goodnight.
Your father will be alright'

Black diamond night
Feels like enchanted in sight
Under the moonlight
Glistening like magic tonight

The calmness of the sea
Lies a spectacular beauty
Mesmerized by the view
My dream is to be with you...

Like a black diamond
I shine ever so brightly

Like a black diamond
Brilliantly cut with pristine clarity

I am a rarity
Like a black diamond
I shine ever so brightly....

Do you love me?
She asked
Then!
I read
The book of her face
I turned my face down
Closed my eyes
To see
My black diamond
Inside me
Our life and memories..
I looked to her again
My soul loves your soul
That's all

summoned black diamond
sun's at other side of night
with the dream roses

heart of joy twinkling
gone down in sea of colors
star of plum evening

still in its peach prime
and dust of the day settles
crow flies to midnight...

The footballer played for Brazil
Black Diamond is how he's known still
His cleverest trick
Was the "bicycle" kick
That let him score goals nearly at will

Selecting the misery,
crown jewel of my pain

To wear like a necklace,
but serve as a chain

Its dark stone on fire,
all light one’s defaced

Reset in a solitaire
—black diamond embrace

Two carats heart shaped diamond ring
Inside of red velvet gift box
Discreetly hidden between
Red wine roses bouquet 
Waiting for the hour
Fiance asks
Fiancee 
To tie
Knot

A lovely lady you are, 
And lovely always be.
Your beauty bright as midnight stars,
And moonlight shining on the sea.

You're all that is fair and kind,
The sweetest dream and reality.
Many times you've crossed my mind; 
My lasting hope is of you and me.

I am the black poet with black book
The dark gold the black diamond
As hot as hot coal with out harm
The dark cloud with Clement weather
Cooking black words in the kitchen of
dark light and black pots
Driving Literature with bouncing rhymes
Like a black taxi driver with poetic license...

Black diamond night
as moonlight love
shines bright with sparks.

breeze flows indoor
Guests on floor tiles
They pour the wine.

Good sound from set
as  they  let  us
to  get on  stage.

Marriage in France
but must dance now
for fans that came.

A dream night
Studded with stars and the moon
Purple horizon holding  me in its lap
A hand reaching out of the dark
Pulling me up into  the sky
Twirling and dancing
I am to a silent tune
In the arms of ecstasy
Living a life of fantasy
Me the princess of the night
In the arms of my dark knight
Truly a black diamond night

the mines  of death the miners knew,
black in the face the workers too,
too many years of underground,
sweat for the masters' dollar go round,
and death got paid his due,
good ol coal miner, you!
in blackness never found,
coal covered in the mound,
awaiting till,
resurrection,

Night, moonless, is a blanket of
thick threads woven blacker than black -
a tapestry of stars above.
Night, moonless, is a blanket of
diamonds, and the eyes of my love
are glittering too now I’m back!
Night, moonless, is a blanket of
thick threads woven blacker than black.

Black diamond, fools gold,
overpriced and undersold.

Falling vices, rising prices,
and all the things that we are told.

Percussive concussion, concussive percussion,
endless discussion.
 
A round of applause for revealing your flaws,
your sin serves to feed them their spin.
If you had our fears, if we gave you our hopes,
we'd devour ourselves from within....

A constellation resembling a big dog appears in the night sky.
It has the brightest of stars that can be seen with the eye.
For the duration of the night, the star shines its blue white face.
It resembles a solitary diamond resting in a black velvet case.
Many light years from here, Sirius continues to burn away.
That is how we derive the phrase “Dog Day”.

A Sea Shanty!

Mother call your children home, 
put them in their beds. 
Tell them stories of better times, 
and try to fill their heads. 
Give them dreams of yesterday, 
and promises for tomorrow, 
but bless them, Lord, as they sleep, 
and take away their sorrow.

The moons abandoned all the stars.
All that is left is Venus and Mars.
The endless depth of nightly vision.
Draws from your sight with it's incision.

Imagination's all there is to let you see what's there.
With naked eye, you just lay back and stare up in the air.
And if by chance you fall asleep and wake up on the lawn.
There's not a dream more wonderful to bring you to the dawn....

A steep slope.
Double black diamond 
Thin air   
Cold and getting colder
First time for everything
I am a little scared. 
Never done this before. 
Am I ready?
Don’t know what to expect. 
No one does. 
Short of breath. 
Tunnel vision setting in.
Long pause before the fast descent. 
With out consent, I’m nudged off the edge. 
Taking the plunge. 
Good bye. 
See you on the other-side....

The night, oppressive 
The darkness reigns within it
Vision falters, dies

Only one form sparkling
Somehow throughout the dark night
Black diamond shines

The harsh pitch black night
Holds this dark diamond shape
And harbors a hope

Black diamond night
A feeling breaches inside
A new stone to show
