Dale Gregory Cozart Poet Rhyme

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

Kurt Ravidas April 20, 2019 at 3:00 PM 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.
