A diamond is a piece of sparking glass. <br />It has a superior hardness that will last. <br />Cut facets create a bright dazzling spray. <br />The owner proudly wears it to display. <br /> <br />This rare rock was removed of the earth’s skin. <br />Are there exceptional abilities hidden within? <br />Does it hold natural powers beyond knowledge? <br />As it is lovingly given with a matrimonial pledge. <br /> <br />The jewel is securely mounted to a ring of gold. <br />It is a keepsake that reinforces a choice to uphold. <br />It faithfully represents many hopes and dreams. <br />It is a treasure that is outshined by what it means… <br /> <br />The radiant gem symbolizes an eternal romance. <br />It unites two people ready for a life-altering chance. <br />When it is placed on third finger of the left hand… <br />It becomes a promise as it joins a wedding band.<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/engagement-ring/
