Diamonds

As the sun up high
touches each point
upon the crystal water
Diamonds are born

Blanketing the river, their attempt to
guide me to an alternate existence
is an ever smooth transition
where must this beauty lead

Brilliance is peaking, I’m
feeling the embracing trance
Their glistening tranquil beauty
is mesmerizing

I pray, I may stay
enveloped in this distraction
forever
