The Diamond is a poem inspired by the artwork "Dirty Diamond" by Beatrice Haines. The poem has been written for National Poetry Day 2015; the theme: Light.

Diamonds have a natural brilliance which comes from reflection, refraction and dispersion. Reflection makes a diamond shine and refraction gives it its sparkle creating a rainbow effect (dispersion).
