Amaranthine ... A word that goes on ... and on An endless maelstrom of matter, dark, seething ... A sea of suns, heaven-ward, burning ... Grains of sand, unique, precious ... infinite! Countless snow crystals, drifting ... not ONE the same! Atoms in the heart of a star - ceaseless! Photons in a single beam of moonlight, perpetual ... But the most lasting of all ... undying, immortal ... Love ... truly, purely, amaranthine! * FIRST PLACE in the "Early December Standard" Poetry Contest, Brian Strand, Sponsor. * * EIGHTH PLACE in the "Word Vision" Poetry Contest, Vermillion Scythe, Sponsor. *
