Diamond Standard

Diamonds, sparkling and rare
The world's most coveted affair
Cut and polished to perfection
A symbol of pure affection
A diamond standard, unmatched in grace
Reflecting eulogies, in each face
The sunburst cut, a dazzling sight
Captivating, in its shimmering light
With every facet, a story untold
A masterpiece, centuries old
Crafted by human hands, so fine
A precious gem, of genius design
The world's desire, a true work of art
A stone that captures every heart
But behind its flawless facade
Lies a tale of human facade
For what is it supposed to be?
A source of beauty, for all to see
Or a symbol of greed and wealth
A measure of one's monetary health
Man-made, yet a precious gem
With powers beyond any human ken
As if the stone cutter poured out its soul
To witness its ultimate charm, as a whole
Diamonds, a paradox so rare
With secrets hidden, in its glare
A display of facts and fiction
A masterpiece, of human addiction
So let the sunburst cut, continue to shine
Reflecting the beauty, of mankind's design
But may we never forget, the truth untold
Behind every diamond, lies a story to behold.
