One special gem

 There is one special Gem

to be treasured

The quality

not to be measured

Is it the brightest

or the sharpest

Do I touch?

Do I feel?

Life is like a lucky dip

Or a racket game

You hit or miss

All that glitters is not gold

A well-polished gem

Can shine and gleam

But then cracks show through

When it loses sheen

So look beyond the polished Gem

Look once, look twice

Then look again

It can take years

To strike gold

To find the one

To truly behold
