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.
