| African Diamond 
 like the water in a channel
 you walk ever so gracefully
 over the sharpest rocks, you tame their contours
 into smooth diamonds that are valuable
 and a marvel to hold...
 
 i was a lonely rock in the river before
 a warm touch turned me into a sparkling diamond
 well not a diamond to watch or to wear,
 i would say a diamond to keep…
 
 as you wake up in morning light
 the glimmer transpires through the spectacle
 revealing a glare of rare beauty
 beauty beyond the eye
 but the heart...
 
 I watch you every morning
 As you come from the river
 The river that shaped you to what you are
 A diamond, a beauty, a treasure.
