Diamond Man
by Beverly Smith
to Robert
He can turn a phrase
He can paint a room
He can build a table
house room inside a room.
He can plumb
He can finger play
He can play guitar
He can play a keyboard
He can player a piano
He can arrange a room
He can sail a boat
He can navigate by eye
by chart by simple thought
He can wire electric
He can wire his soul
He can design a light
He can make a ring
or two
He can carve wax in to tooth
He can carve teeth into shape
He can write arresting
thoughts
He can draw a funny figure
He can compose music
himself at great moments
He can think original
He can love a child
He can play
He can guide
Oh he can really cook
a meal
and there is more . . .
