Thank you for adding to June's couplet in this Renga. Your words and use of yellow capture the "brilliant morning light" and "diamonds" simile. Smiles- Joan

The doctors have found the cancer started in the gallbladder and will add another medication to the upcoming chemo. Thank you for thinking about me. Take good care of your self- Joan

...this just makes my heart sing. The smell and feel of a little baby - sigh. I'll hold one any day over diamonds - so precious. A nice follow up to the "awakening sleepy eyes"...

Cute babies work in all politics and poetry! No, seriously...this is a perfect continuation stemming from June Sargent's entry! Precious babe truly does shine like diamonds...although the baby is priceless!--Karenina

Gypsy,

This is another good addition to your renga collaborative book. While June used 'golden' in the previous chapter, another version of your first line could be:

morning's golden light

which would emphasize the yellow color in your baby picture --
and yes your 'brilliant' does go with 'diamonds' (-;

In renga we can't repeat words from stanza to stanza.

Thank you very much for your review and feedback. You got us all thinking about babies. LoL

I love the luminosity of this poem! You describe the morning lights in such a lively way, but the real delight is the baby's smile described as a shimmering diamond!

There's the joy of morning and the brilliant sun but even more "brilliant" and precious is the beautiful baby. Nicely done with your 575 following June's 7-7.
