very original and nice...well done!

interesting idea. i like the way you presented the poem especially! it's not easy to write poems within such constrictions. this is indeed an eye-opener. good job!

Very clever. I love it.

i like this poem very much. obviously it takes shape of a diamond which is really cool, but your right about the ending that many have diamonds in their own home but they see it as charcoal. it's very simple but it just works well. good job!

I like the idea of doing it in the shape of a diamond. 'Tis clever and muchly original :)

Thank you muchly for my reviews, hon!

::hugs::

Oh, and keep writing ;)

VERY nice, and very original. I love the syntax of that one. Keep it up, Cas.

What a great last line. But... The diamond is top-heavy! I bet the other diamond-girls are jealous now...

:hums Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend (or whatever that song's called) to herself:

that WAS pretty cool. i liked the diamond idea. good last line - i liked how sardonic the poam was.

This is a very lovely piece of work...It's very true as well: we invest so much in something that is jsut, in essence, a shiny rock.

Keep Writing,

Makes you think about the worthlessness of many of the world's treasured objects. :o)

Hey thanks! _ And thanks for reviewing it too! *KG

Cleverly done and very original – descriptive as well! I’ll never forget the day in science when I discovered diamond is a relative of carbon. The concept really draws on the whole hidden beauty ideal and seeing something for its potential.
