I've seen through prismed glass,
kaleidoscoped colors play.

slipping
upon
one
another

back
and
over

behind,

delay...

there, the hand does twist
with slight of wrist

the rainbow *splash* displayed
with >bright< a lack of fade

the dance of colors show
they swirl, and I follow.

"they swirl, and i follow"

a different style than your usual tight, introspective, and philosphical stuff.

it is a nice change.

we all follow rainbows... some internal to the glass houses we live in..some reflections of the others we look through...

enjoyed both the style and the sound...

this just lifted my mood.

i love colour.

thank you very much for sharing.

it was an excellent piece.

one quick thing? perhaps you could use normal dashes as opposed to those little swirly things. i personally don't recognize them as punctuation. but i'm stickly about some weird things. :: shrugs ::

Anne! You just made me remember that I once collected Kaleidoscopes.....wonder where they went.

Just more breadcrumbs, I guess

Anne, I love the colors in Kaleidoscopes.
I enjoyed this poem, too.

Cpat, thanks so much for your insightful response.

inkedgoddess, thank you for reading. Your comments were so kind.

Thank you quietlydying, for reading and for the tip on the little squiggles. I removed them and kind of like it without anything there.

Ed, don't that just irk ya when you can't think of what happened to things you once had. I am the same way. I've left a trail of bread crumbs that would fill a tractor trailer. Glad you enjoyed

Ethel, thanks dear lady for reading and responding.

Can't think of any place I'd rather be--beautiful!!
