A Diamond And A Lotus
A Diamond And A Lotus
The diamond stays one even if covered with dirt
The lotus blooms amid the pond full of squalor
Eagle soars high, what a sight when it flies
The diamond shines bright, let us rejoice in the light
The lotus blooms amid all the surrounding gloom
The flight of the eagle full of grace leaves not a trace
A rare carbon becomes a diamond
That is in the nature of things if you don’t mind
A thing of beauty, let not our prejudice make us go blind
