A Momentary Dazzle

Sunlight tumbles over an open window, then swallow-dives into a silver kitchen sink. Fractals of reflected iridescence dance over China plates. A surface tension between a faucet and a drop of water creates a solar flare within its liquid release. I imagine a mighty splash, picture an arching rainbow cresting over high waves. Buoyant beams spill over the glinting rim of a breakfast spoon.

Love this, Eric! The imagery is apt for a poet’s eye, not overlooked and yes, overthought, and taken on. So glad I read this one! Blessings!
