A Gem in the Rough

In a world full of sameness and monotony,

A rare gem shines, with its own quality.

It stands out, with its own radiance,

A beauty that requires no reliance.

*

A gem that's rough, yet still so rare,

With a sparkle that fills the air.

It's a treasure, a sight to behold,

A true gem in a world of gold.

*

It's not shaped by man's hand,

But crafted by the power of land.

Its journey, a story to be told,

Of hardships and triumphs, of getting old.

*

It's a symbol of hope, a reminder of grace,

That beauty can come from the most unlikely place.

So cherish this gem, rough or not,

For it's a symbol of what we've got.

*

For in this world of monotony,

We all have a gem, just waiting to be seen,

A beauty that's rare, with its own quality,

A gem in the rough, that's truly a rarity.
