The narrative of gems




From rough to shine
from earth-bowel to adornment
from step to step
there is fingertip and callous
the drawing forth and drawing upon
delicate love
in the refinement of the refined
soft eye tenderness
that imagines facet
and crafts and crafts and crafts;
it's small end of a long story
where perfect narrative
erases all that has come before.

  2. This perfect poem does not allow to erase all that has come before. Beautiful and it is the poem of all who contributed for the gem.

    A perfect narrative is self explanatory and make the previous narrations redundant. I like the usage of words. -Sriparna
