God's Milk In A Ball of Silk

Pure and plain like a plump white plum, Evenness of color in a swirling euphoric fog. Alchemy in a shell ready to sell for the chance of romance. Round and rolling right out of Heaven's Chest. Line, string, & loop 'round the neck that is your best.

Excellent acrostic. Best one I've seen yet. Way better than mine. So far.

i like the internal rhyme and it was a good idea to write it as an acrostic, but just a heads up if it's for the pearl contest i think it has to be 10-20 lines..i've got three ideas for this contest but one's too erotic for this site lol

I know, I warned Craig in an email that I've submitted it under the line requirement, so I know it may or may not be placed. We shall see.
