Today I Saw A Diamond Cry

Today I saw a diamond cry

For your beauty stole its shine

The flowers all began to sigh

For you make them all benign

The stars no longer reflect the moon

For you have become their light

Even the sun is not immune

For he chases away the night

Your shadow makes the sun rejoice

He follows where ever you go

His love for you has bound his voice

Or he would have told you so

Even the breeze whispers your name

Just to touch your hair

Your shadow tries to share your fame

She follows you everywhere

Today I saw a diamond cry

For your beauty stole its shine

Not a day goes by that I don't ask why

The Good Lord made you mine

Impressive! I never wrote the romantic poem (I probably never won't) but this one really made me like the romantic and everything... There's something amazingly soft, sweet and warm in it. I really like more the poems with a rhyming scheme(than without it) they're just more original, and they have that one rhytm going through the whole poem. Yours is just the example of that kind of a great rhyming scheme poem.

I haven't read as lovely as this for a long time :D

This says so much in so few lines. And it sounds so nice to read aloud, it just flows so well. You're very talented, I hope more people get to read this.
