I Am A Diamond In The Rough Comments

This is beautifully written

What a beautiful tribute Kelley It touched my heart. Dusty is never more than a breath away

I am a diamond in the rough, meant to be buried yet still remain tough, My father told me i could outshine them all; for, at my worst I still stood tall. Many times dirt has covered me, I still shine bright; as, this is what is meant to be, I am a diamond in the rough, accidentally buried; yet, still remain tough. - - - - - - - - - - - - - -A nice tribute to your brother who is no more.It reflects how you value him.

There is nothing so precious as family. To lose your brother tears away the very fabric of life. You have done for him what only you can do, and I hope that it will always bless your memory of him.

I have been buried enough! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

a wonderful tribute poem that will always shine a light for your brother much loved? ................dazzling written.

This is nice to see your poem here as the poem of the day. Congratulations! On your brother Dusty's birthday you have written a nice tribute poem. A soul is like diamond dazzles in sky of emotion and duty. Yes, he is the star he shines bright. This is a lovely poem definitely...10

An admirable chi made glorious by the shine of the diamond in the mud of life, though buried.

One of the most difficult challenges possible is to take a dull, dirty, time-worn cliche and turn it into an object of wonder and beauty, containing an elusive fire within itself which can be approached but never touched. To make it multi-faceted and dancing with a light that comes from within. In fact, it may be impossible.

Such positive words. Very uplifting for the reader. This poem reminds me of a poem I wrote when I first started writing poetry. Sadly I lost it and can't remember all the words. Well done! Congratulation! ! !

A sad but noble poem about a very special brother. I think a Diamond in the rough is something special and, as a person, a very special friend. it is a very loving tribute. He would have loved it. well done on a well deserved poem of the day. Also thinking of my American friends on the 4th July. A special poem and a special day. Tom Billsborough
