Analysis of Diamonds?



Many people think they last forever,
That metaphysical/factual, treasure?
Greig's a Dad... couldn't be richer:
Artistically created a new pleasure!

Yet, while the day job is what it is...
Our family is much more than 'others';
Parents, siblings and friends? Yes!
Immeasurable echoes of mothers!

He and she drew together and then,
Thereafter, this couple surely grew;
Their marriage did evolve/not when?
Congratulations: love's not new!
