JEWEL

To immerse it in gold
Brandish it high 
Shout out too loud...
Look.... oh... Behold...!!!

What finery here
Look what splendor was
mine
See what jewels he made us
In such little time

And if flaws now are banished
Too high coated in gloss
No apologies made 
For so high is the cost

For isn't all perfect and quite
dazzling in light 
Any flaws found to mar 
Viewed by imperfect sight

For what now is left
But what glitters and shines
Glows more golden with time
Like the son I called mine
