The Search

A rare gem in the earth's deep mines,

A treasure sought by many kinds,

Its beauty shining, pure and bright,

A symbol of wealth and eternal light.

It's valued for its hue and hue,

Its hardness, rareness, and its hue,

It's treasured by kings, and queens, and lords,

And for some, it's worth more than their swords.

A diamond is a rare delight,

With facets that catch the morning light,

Its brilliance, fire, and scintillation,

A beauty that's unmatched, without relation.

But rareness isn't just in things we hold,

It's in moments, memories, and love untold,

It's in the laughter of a child,

In the embrace of a friend, so mild.

So cherish the rare in life, so bright,

For it's the things that bring the most delight,

And hold them close, and never let them go,

For they are the treasures, that make life so.
