Missing image

 

 

 

Pigments of thought
caught in time,
melding in motion

to practiced moments
of anticipation;


following the hand
that flows gently
within heart’s harmony


as outlines become impressions.


Winter blues fade
when dapples
of reds and yellows
mix with summer greens;


Tanzanite reemerging
in indigo dreams,
where twilight dancers
are seldom seen;


where whispers linger,
longing to call upon discovery ~


Seeking imagination's attention.

    This is beautifully penned, no doubts about that, but I feel the imagery transition from "mix with summer greens;" to the next stanza "Tanzanite..." doesn't flow true to me. Perhaps this is where you are focused now?

    Love the colorful aspect you are lending this poem!

    WOW

    You have worked magic into this prompt. I felt myself linger as outlines turned to impressions, as winter blues fade to summer greens.

    Beautifully written. Truly a wonderful piece to this prompt. Best of luck in this contest. A wonderful entry. ~Pamela
