  • True Diamonds

    March 5, 2016, Chula Vista-

    I laid a diamond in a vault,

    Some five years ago today.

    A hatchling gem sprouted wings,

    and  found his own way.

    Much happened to burnish

    away the rough,

    both for mother and for son.

    I think of those who have not

    seen their shine,

    It’s for them that my tears run.
