Gem Cutter

I'm trying to polish my phrases

I want all my words to shine

I need to make them all matter

A jewel found in every line

    The secret to a sparkling diamond is knowing what to cut away. You don't waste words in your writing so your poems are gems!

    Words for a writer to live by! Short, sweet, and oh, so true. I may have to post that on my laptop.

    Thanks for all the kind comments, everybody!

    Lisa, there's no greater praise for my words than for them to be repeated.

You may put in your 2¢ worth, but I'll only pay you a penny for your thoughts.
