Blood Red

A
blood red
drop
flows like
a liquid
ruby
down
the sides
of a wax
cerise candle
as its wick
burns with
flames
flaunting
magenta
scarlet
and
crimson
hues.

Hi Emile, congrats for winning the Waltz Wave contest! And we have the same title? I'm sure I haven't seen this one before. Do you remember I asked your permission if I can do my own take on the Eagle for the Bird contest? This is the second time we had the same choice! Amazing! Kim :-)

excellent way to do this form on a brilliant color. I was thinking of using red and then realized orange was the one color i had never yet written about for Soup!!
