The Hardest Beauty

a poem by Girish Elchuri

Diamond brings brightness,
Even in pitch darkness,
That is the inner beauty it possess,
Inspite of carrying all the curses.

Diamond is a thing of beauty,
That brings the richness in you – truly,
It’s the wealth of every family,
From big to small – it has created all the history.

Diamond is the tool to cut,
It’s the material that is hardest,
Of all that is in earth’s crest,
Surely not, it won’t rust.

Diamond is the universal gift of love,
Which is the dream of all above,
In the life of everyone,
From the past, in the present and of the future.

Really – it is the hardest beauty.
