DIAMOND   (Tanka)

DIAMOND (Tanka)

A Chapter by Dhaye
"

Are you?

Diamond to sift

Richly genuine or a sham?

Sparkles delude

Like word crafted perfectly

But comes stealthily painful.

Ok now I understood what it mean. Its very deep yet beautifully crafted words to describe this jewel
A true piece .. a truth of life you've expressed by taking an example of Diamond. Nice poem. Yer stuffs're short .. like it's a tanka. . . but your all stuffs i've read are much powerful as well. Keep writing.

Well We all want the love tobe as genuine as the ring that signifies it.It seems they are mutually exclusive and the simpler the ring the deeper the love

Thanks, Sir Ency. Hear My Mind. :)
All that glitters is not gold, just as all pretty rocks are not diamonds. Really well done, good use of Tanka form.
