Clouds in arays of brilliance
Stacked
&
Multiplied
Compound mineral:
carbonate hydroxide
intoxicating the sences spectral swirls
uncommon feeling
splay of wonder & delight
fading out. sO wanting the touch
shine eyes in ever green skies
dot . puff . spread
mixed water paint dropped on wet paper

This is beautiful and it reminds me of art--the words draw a watercolor picture. Great poem and good luck in the contest!

I was thinking of watercolor painting the whole time I was writing it.
Thanks for the read and the comment!!

Wow, I never really favored malachite until I read this! ^^
Lots of beautiful lines in this one. It all played with my senses and tickled my artisticness (is that a word?).
"intoxicating the sences spectral swirls"
That put malachite in a whole new, almost seductive light.
Good job, and good luck! -

Thanks!
I had fun with this one.
I had no idea what the color was before I decided to enter.
So I learned something new.
