Iridescence

Silver-blue magenta shimmering warmly white damson-dark at center like southern summer night clay might yet invent a true visceral new light.

Thank you, Darren - but I've had to eat humble pie. And quite rightly, too!

Many thanks, Kim! It might have been a bigger triumph if I'd bothered to read the requirements of the contest more closely ...

Thank you very much, Eve! There was a slight problem with my wholesale flouting of the contest rules. Ouch!

I love when large descriptions are used on normally simple things, such as this. It shows how there are more dimensions than what first meets the eye.

Clay just might. Some people can see one or more extra colours, so fascinating. I learned a new word again: damson :)
