I Never Thought I'd Touch A Real Diamond

I never thought I'd touch a real diamond.

They sit behind glass- made so precious by
their inaccessibility-
sparkling and rare...
flawless to my eyes.

I never thought I'd touch a real diamond.
But one night I learned diamonds aren't just 'stones'.
The word, by virtue of the meaning,
takes and holds a universe of interpretation.

The night I met my wife-
Diamonds do change lives...
When I touched her and felt and loved her,
I touched a diamond that night.
