I certainly like the glitter Ronovan scattered on our path this week. Life’s too short not to have some bling in it 😉
She’s a diamond of the first water.
Even the older ladies admired
her flawless, pearl smooth and glowing skin

Clear cut carats of real diamonds sparkled
on her gold based crown
mixed with countless mother of pearl seeds.

I love both of these haiku Jacqui and the way that you used the prompt words. You made it look so easy, but I struggled with it this week! 🙂

Thanks Judy. It wasn’t as easy as I thought. I think the challenge is in the few number of words that we have to use.

Indeed, she shone as brightly as diamonds. 🙂

Even from a television thousands of miles away she looked and acted so sweet and caring. Truly England’s rose, that spirit seem to be in the Duchess Kate.
