A poem about how things with little value to one person can mean a lot another.
A couple sat on a hill,
Looked up at the sky very still,
Looking up to the stars at night,
They observed as some of them shone really bright,
Yet in between there were others,
Duller than their sky bound brothers,
Till the girl said pointing high;
"Oh look at those diamonds in the sky!"
These diamonds were a little dull,
Her partner's attention they didn't pull,
Said the boy in reply;
"Those stars are boring, dull and dry!"
The girl spoke again still staring up high;
"Although these star's beauty you do reject,
I their brightness do respect,
Of all the stars that shine tonight,
To me those stars shine so bright."
