Effulgence

She floats into a room and voices hush, the silence at effulgence in her bloom, as crimson rises to her cheeks in blush to humble scarlet gardens and their plume. Klimt: Portrait of a Lady in Black Date Originally posted: 12/4/17 Contest: Rithimus Divisa Sponsor: Gregory R Barden

This is so lovely and brings such a sweet picture to mind. It reminds me of the days when I would blush at the "drop of a hat". Congrats on your win in the contest, Dale.

Thanks, Andrea. Me, too. As it turns out I only found one stand alone verse that would work. I'm glad I had it!

This short text is so metaphorical that a reader sees through the author's eyes the protagonist blushing. It's kind of magic, i.e. a true poetry.
