On my dresser
sits a ball
made of the finest crystal
It catches the light from the bedroom window
and a misty liquid
swirls to tell my fortunate
colors never seen before
more than blue and purple
dance and glitter
cast on my ceiling
I wate
my fortune is being determined
by a crystal ball
made from the finest glass

'I wate' should be I wait. A very small error taking nothing from your poem. I like the air of yearning for mystery, of longing for secrets and the simple clarity.
Thanks for entering
Peace Georgia
