The Diamond
Come with me
to my world
inside the fence.
To see the most valuable gem
that I know.
The rough cut diamond
with a face so beautiful.
With 4 white corners
that provide safety.
It has a face
covered with dirt,
smiling and beckoning
for people to visit.
Come with me
to my diamond
laid in a field of green.
It tells many stories
of passion, grit, and friendship.
5 people dance on its face
with one extra in the middle.
3 more stay on the borders,
watching the others.
Come with me
to play my game
on the face of a gem.
Not shiny and clear,
but brown and green.
The gem holds
the great American game of Baseball.
Telling its stories
forever.
