Not a gem’s worth,
No fortune,
Neither gold
Nor silver,
Forget rubies
And amethysts,
Love me
A river;
A fountain of
Meaning
In floods
From the oceans,
Surging
Unbidden,
Life-giving
Devotion.
Cast pearls to
The oysters,
Return metals
To ore,
Forgive non-commercial;
Money
A bore.
No best friend
The diamonds,
Glinting
Like ice.
Arms
And your words
Are my
Only vice.
And so it should be momus. But a dirty big diamond can reinforce all that 🙂 Well written in beautiful heartfelt verse. Namaste
