Elegance



Cranberry satin, thin stripped
ivory bows, pearls strewn
images
  ~sashaying,

Eyes of seaweed green
illuminate the dimness
the glint
  ~staggering

Cheekbones of high
the paleness of rosebud blush
invites
  ~warmly

The stick, upon lips
of the freshest cherry shade
parting slightly
  ~she reddens

Her elegance lingers

    I liked the colours in this poem - the cranberry, cherry, rosebud blush, etc. - very nicely done.

    I was just wondering why a poem that speaks of eleganceand grace, and captures so much light within it was written in such dark colours?? It was quite hard to read and I think a lighter font will add so much more impact to the poem (and make it more readable). But I did enjoy this...lovely sounds to this poem too.

    Thank you for this entry.

      At the time of posting this my power went out and I could not edit the color choices or background. I am at work and have now had the opportunity to change it.
      Thanks.
